Coder v2.1.0

Coder v2.1.0 introduces new user management capabilities, CLI improvements, and enhanced workspace logging while making a notable change to the base image by removing jq. If you rely on jq for fetching database secrets or other values, you’ll need to build your own Coder image. This release also brings Azure OIDC PKI authentication support, Helm chart updates, and the ability to manually add users before enabling automatic OIDC or GitHub signups.

New Features

  • Manual User Addition – You can now manually add OIDC or GitHub users, useful for onboarding before opening access to all users in your identity provider.
  • CLI Dynamic Headers – The new --header-command flag allows the CLI to use external services for dynamic authentication headers, useful for deployments behind an application proxy or VPN.
  • Azure OIDC PKI Authentication – Coder now supports Azure OIDC authentication using PKI instead of a client secret.
  • Build Log Enhancements – Workspace build errors now appear as tooltips, and a build log history page provides more visibility into past builds.
  • Everyone Group Quotas – You can now set quotas for the Everyone group directly in the UI.

Breaking Changes

  • jq Removed from Base Image – If you use jq for fetching Coder's database secret or other values, you'll need to build your own Coder image. Learn more here.
