The following updates were released to the Kentik platform for Platform during October 2026.
Features
Faster login and app loading: Permission checks run in parallel and make fewer database calls when the app loads.
Agent health checks: The agent health status indicators checks for common causes of agents that can't register, reach Kentik, install or upgrade. Each check names the cause and says what to do.
Bulk collection method update: The bulk dialog on the Devices page now has more fields. You can switch devices between ICMP-only and SNMP monitoring and pick a monitoring template.
Bug Fixes
Share links: Public share links no longer expose company inventory lookups or NMS device data to people who open the link. The shared page uses only global reference data and the lookups saved when the link was created.
Password reset: Share-link sessions can no longer start an expired-password reset. The expiry check now uses the company's configured duration and excludes SSO users.
Sessions after role changes: A user's session is refreshed when their role changes, so removed privileges apply right away. SSO users no longer get an unexpected 2FA prompt.
Report categories: Report categories can no longer be read, changed or deleted across companies.
Agent map popups: Fixed a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) issue in kproxy agent map popups.
