Zuplo Changelog
We release improvements, new features, and fixes daily. Follow along here to see the most important updates.
We've added new SSO security options to give Enterprise customers greater control over team authentication and access management.
What's New:
- Require Enterprise SSO: Force all team members to authenticate through your configured enterprise identity provider, preventing fallback to Google, GitHub, or password-based logins
- Automatic SSO User Provisioning: Automatically add users to your Zuplo account when they authenticate through your enterprise identity provider
Availability:
- These features are available for Enterprise plan customers with SSO enabled
- Access the new controls in Account Settings > Security > Single Sign-On (SSO)
- Free and Pro plan users will see upgrade prompts to access these features
Default Behavior:
- All new SSO security features are disabled by default
- Existing SSO configurations remain unchanged
- Customers can enable these features on demand based on their security requirements
This update provides Enterprise customers with the flexibility to implement stricter authentication policies while maintaining backward compatibility with existing setups.

Summary#
This week's releases introduce several important improvements to the Dev Portal.
The most notable enhancement is the improved rendering of complex OpenAPI schema
types (anyOf and oneOf), making API documentation clearer and more
intuitive. We've also added support for the x-displayName extension, allowing
for better customization of API property names in documentation.
Key fixes include resolving issues with the create-zudoku CLI tool and syntax
highlighting errors. We've also improved redirect behavior by switching to
JavaScript-based redirects for better reliability. Under the hood, we've
migrated to Biome for code formatting and linting, and updated several
dependencies including Zod v4, which brings improved TypeScript support.

We're announcing the end of life for Zuplo's v1 monetization product on November 15th, 2025. No new projects can be created with legacy monetization features, effective immediately.
Why We're Making This Change#
After extensive customer feedback, we've learned that our v1 monetization product lacked the flexibility you need, from pay-as-you-go pricing to self-service customer portals, advanced analytics, and multi-currency support.
Rather than building a subpar solution, we're focusing on what we do best: creating the most powerful API management platform while partnering with high quality products that provide superior monetization and billing experiences.
Our New Approach#
We're partnering with best-in-class monetization platforms to give you the best of both worlds: Zuplo's powerful API management plus specialized metering, billing and payment solutions with all the features you need.
Migration Support#
We're committed to supporting existing monetization users through this transition:
- Continued functionality until November 15th, 2025
- Migration assistance to other supported platforms
- Priority support and comprehensive documentation
- Complete examples to get you up and running quickly
Benefits#
This new approach gives you greater flexibility to choose the right monetization platform, faster innovation through specialized solutions that integrate easily with Zuplo's platform and API, better customer experiences with professional billing portals, and reduced complexity so you can focus on your API.
This release introduces significant improvements to the Zuplo CLI, rate limiting capabilities, and developer portal experience. Key highlights include a new CLI command for migrating to the redesigned developer portal, enhanced rate limiting with adaptive timeouts, and support for wildcard subdomains in CORS policies.
New Features 🎉#
-
New Developer Portal Migration Command - Added
zuplo source migrate dev-portalCLI command to help users migrate to the new Zuplo Developer Portal built on the Zudoku framework. This simplifies the transition to the enhanced portal experience. -
Enhanced Rate Limiting with Adaptive Timeouts - The rate limiter policy now supports adaptive and configurable timeouts, providing more flexible control over API rate limiting behavior and improved performance under varying load conditions.
-
CLI Project Creation - New CLI command for creating Zuplo projects directly from the command line, streamlining the project setup workflow. See the CLI documentation for usage details.
Bug Fixes 🐛#
-
OpenAPI Transpiler Type Handling - Fixed an issue where the OpenAPI transpiler now correctly defaults to "type: object" when properties are defined, ensuring proper schema generation and type safety.
-
CLI Tunnel Command Validation - Added missing account argument validation for the create tunnel command in the Zuplo CLI, preventing errors when setting up local development tunnels.
Improvements 🔄#
-
Wildcard Subdomain Support for CORS - The CORS policy now supports wildcard subdomains, enabling more flexible cross-origin configurations for APIs serving multiple subdomains or multi-tenant applications.
-
Enhanced SSO and MFA Security - Improved security for enterprise accounts by enforcing SSO and MFA requirements, ensuring better access control and compliance with enterprise security policies.
Summary#
This release brings significant improvements to the Dev Portal, including enhanced authentication documentation, better cross-platform compatibility, and a new API key plugin feature. Key highlights include:
- Enhanced Authentication Support: Added comprehensive setup guides for 6 major authentication providers
- Improved Documentation System: Reverted to file-based routing for better performance and added admonition formatting validation
- Cross-Platform Fixes: Resolved Windows path issues for better developer experience
- API Key Enhancement: New ability to access user authentication context during API key creation
New Features 🎉#
ApiKeyPlugin Enhancement
(#1360) The API key plugin now
passes the auth object into the createKey callback, enabling API key
services to access user authentication context during key creation. This allows
for more sophisticated key generation workflows that can leverage user-specific
data and permissions.
Documentation & Development Experience 📚#
Enhanced Authentication Documentation (#1258) Added comprehensive setup guides for integrating the Dev Portal with 6 major authentication providers:
- Auth0
- Azure AD
- Clerk
- Firebase
- PingFederate
- Supabase
Each guide includes step-by-step configuration instructions and best practices. Learn more about authentication setup →

routing for documentation pages with a new serveAllFiles configuration option.
This change improves performance and simplifies the documentation serving
architecture.
Cross-Platform Path Resolution (#1357) Fixed a critical issue where Windows file paths (using backslashes) were not properly normalized to POSIX format (forward slashes). This ensures the Dev Portal works correctly across all operating systems.
BuildCheck Environment Type (#1356, #1358) Resolved an issue where precompiled components couldn't access environment-specific configurations. The environment type is now properly passed through the build process, enabling correct behavior in different deployment environments.
