# Release Notes — 2.69

Covers the **2.69** release series. Most recent patch: **2.69.2**.

Unless a subsection notes otherwise, changes apply to both Monad SaaS and self-hosted.

## New features & improvements

- **jq transforms: prevent data dropping** — a new opt-in toggle on jq transform nodes keeps records that would otherwise be silently discarded when a jq program returns empty or errors on a record, so a single malformed event no longer drops data from your pipeline. [Docs →](https://app.monad.com/docs/transforms/jq)
  - *Access:* opt-in — turn on **Prevent data dropping** in the transform (jq) node's settings.
- **HTTP input accepts JSON arrays** — the HTTP input now ingests a JSON array in a single request body and expands it into individual records, so batched senders no longer need one request per event.
- **Unified organization users view** — the organization's own users and users inherited from a parent organization are now shown in a single table, making it easier to see everyone with access at a glance.
- **Filter alerts by pipeline and resource** — the alerts API now supports filtering by pipeline and by resource, so you can scope alert queries to the pipeline or component you care about.
- **Fresher enrichment lookups** — the `kv-lookup` enrichment's lookup cache now refreshes within about one second, so enrichment results reflect updates to your lookup data almost immediately.
- **Shared resources show their parent organization** — resources shared into your organization now resolve and display the sharing (parent) organization's name, so it's clear where a shared component originates.
- **Smoother pipeline continuity during restarts** — pipelines now ride out routine node restarts and pod rescheduling without interruption, improving reliability during platform maintenance.

## New connectors

- **Microsoft Sentinel v2 (output)** — a rebuilt Sentinel output connector for forwarding records into Microsoft Sentinel. [Docs →](https://app.monad.com/docs/outputs/msft-sentinel-v2)

## Fixes

- **Connections scoped to your organization** — getting, updating, and deleting a connection is now correctly scoped to your organization, preventing cross-organization access.
- **Role updates respect the privilege floor** — updating a role now enforces the same minimum-privilege rules as creating one, so a role can't be edited to exceed its allowed privileges.
- **Edit stays reachable for shared resources** — the Edit action remains available on a resource that has only a share policy, fixing a case where it disappeared.
- **Correct landing page after login** — post-login redirect now only remembers real navigation destinations, so you're returned to the page you intended rather than an intermediate one.

## Breaking changes

None.
