September 2026 - Synthetics

Prev Next

The following updates were released to the Kentik platform for Synthetics during September 2026.

Features

  • Rebuilt Agents page: The Agents page has sortable columns, filters (type, status, capabilities, provider, tests, labels, ASN, region, country, IP config), pagination and an interactive map. A new "Unknown" health state separates lookup failures from missing agents. Global agent health is now visible to all users.
  • Static IP for all agents: Users with agent configuration permission can now turn on static IP for any Synthetics agent.
  • Updated capability drawer: The Synthetics capability drawer has a new layout and clearer toggle labels. Read-only fields are permission-checked.
  • Filter by enum values: You can filter synthetic test results by health status, DNS response code and HTTP status code, using readable labels.

Bug Fixes

  • Infinite spinner when adding a private agent: The install command now loads when you add a private agent.
  • Tests page search: Search on the Tests page now matches only display name and ID, so results are consistent.
  • BGP route viewer errors: Fixed errors that could crash the page when BGP configuration was missing or incomplete.
  • Alarm timeline errors: Fixed browser errors on the synthetic alarm timeline when the chart updates.
  • Path view metric labels: Fixed a metric mislabel in path view health results.
