Changelog
Keep up with the latest updates we’ve made in Workato.
Easier troubleshooting with Workato Logs
Our new Logs feature captures every recipe’s log entries—even its repeated steps.
Use it to search through log entries and troubleshoot your recipes with greater ease.
See more in the documentation on Workato logs, and contact your customer success manager to start logging.
On-prem Agent (OPA) 2.13.1 release
- On-prem files: Invalid character error for Windows file path format fixed
See OPA Release Notes in docs.
Compare recipe versions with Recipe Diff
With the Recipe Diff feature, users can visually compare two versions of a recipe side by side—before choosing which to export.
This is handy for users who manage their team’s recipe development lifecycle.
To see how it works, check out Recipe Diff's documentation.

On-prem Agent (OPA) 2.13.0 release
- Security: Java Runtime Environment upgraded to version 17.0.3

- Cloud logging: now enabled by default, agent logs will be sent to Workato for improvements and fixes
- HTTP response compression: now enabled by default, this may increase CPU consumption for better communication throughput
- Command line: ‘mgmt-listen’ option added to expose technical endpoint, useful for health checks when running OPA inside a containerized environment.
- Command line: Undocumented ‘/status’ endpoint deprecated
- Security: libraries with vulnerabilities have been upgraded
- Custom HTTP SSL options: internal agent communication no longer affected
- Kafka: Avro and Schema Registry support added

Concurrency usage now visible on API platform dashboard
API platform users can now monitor average and peak concurrency usage in real time. Go to API platform to see your dashboard.
Job IDs format updated
For stronger security and improved scalability, all job IDs will be updated to a string format (e.g. j-KGAKfhsz-GYoLeD4Q), in place of numbers—on 1 September 2022.
If you wish to assess the impact of this migration, your customer success manager is ready to support.
Pending job queue transparency
The job summary view now provides full visibility into the queue of pending jobs for the recipes. In a quick glance you can get an overview of the following:
- Number of jobs waiting to be processed in the queue
- Estimated time for clearing the jobs in queue
Now you can check the queue size, and processing times to identify potential bottlenecks, or opportunities for optimization.
