We recently introduced the ability to manage deployment retention—a way to automatically clean up your project's deployments after a set period of time.

Starting November 18, 2024, we are changing the default retention policy for canceled deployments only. Canceled deployments will be automatically deleted after 30 days for all projects, unless your project has a custom deployment retention setting. There will be no impact to deployments that are not canceled.

We've improved how Vercel Authentication handles rewrites between protected deployments. If you have access to the deployment and it belongs to the same team as the original deployment, we now automatically grant access to the rewritten deployment.

Previously, when rewriting to a protected deployment, Vercel Authentication would redirect through vercel.com to authenticate the user, causing the rewrite to become a redirect.

Automatic access between protected rewrites is only applicable if you are already authenticated with Vercel on the original deployment. This new behavior does not apply to rewrites when you authenticate using Shareable Links, Protection Bypass for Automation, or Password Protection.

Read more about Deployment Protection in our docs.

When you make a commit to a monorepo, the Recent Previews section on your team overview page will now show an expandable row containing preview, source, and deployment links for all deployments triggered by your commit, across all projects.

Recent Previews gives you easy access to the previews you have viewed or deployed recently. Learn more in the dashboard overview documentation.
