Release8.1.0.5
This release introduces enhancements and bug fixes across Model Context Protocol, Lineage, Data & Metadata Changes, and Jobs, improving enterprise authentication, audit visibility, lineage efficiency, metadata comparison accuracy, and job log accessibility.
Key Highlights
Model Context Protocol: Added an Audit Log Export API for scheduled MCP access log retrieval and introduced OAuth 2.0 authentication support alongside existing authentication methods, enabling secure enterprise integrations with comprehensive audit visibility.
Lineage: Optimized QuickSight lineage processing to eliminate redundant analysis rebuilds for shared dashboards, improving build efficiency and lineage status reliability.
Data & Metadata Changes: Fixed incorrect data-type modifications in Redshift metadata comparisons, ensuring only actual schema changes are reported.
Jobs: Resolved job log download failures, ensuring logs are generated and downloaded successfully for analysis and troubleshooting.

Model Context Protocol
New & Improved
Audit Log Export API for MCP Access Monitoring
There was no dedicated way to programmatically retrieve MCP API access logs for security monitoring. Organizations had limited options for identifying who accessed MCP endpoints, when requests were made, which parameters were passed, and the associated IP addresses or session details.
With this enhancement, a new Audit Log Export API enables scheduled retrieval of MCP API access logs. The API provides details such as the user, the accessed endpoint, the request time, the request parameters, and IP or session information, allowing organizations to export and integrate audit logs with external monitoring systems.
OAuth 2.0 Authentication Support for OvalEdge MCP Server
The OvalEdge MCP Server supported API Key and Basic Authentication for authenticating MCP client requests. While effective, this required manual credential management and configuration, making enterprise onboarding and integration with modern AI platforms more complex.
With this enhancement, the OvalEdge MCP Server now supports OAuth 2.0 authentication alongside the existing API Key and Basic Authentication methods. Administrators can configure the server to use API Key, OAuth, or a hybrid authentication mode based on deployment requirements. Existing role-based access controls, governance policies, permissions, and audit logging continue to be enforced after successful authentication.
Lineage
New & Improved
Improved QuickSight Lineage Building for Shared Analyses
Building lineage for QuickSight dashboards and analyses simultaneously led to redundant lineage processing and inconsistent build statuses. When the same analysis was shared across multiple dashboards, its lineage was rebuilt for each dashboard, increasing processing time and occasionally causing status mismatches.
With this enhancement, the QuickSight lineage build process has been optimized to avoid unnecessary rebuilds of analysis lineage when analyses are shared across multiple dashboards. The updated process also improves lineage status handling during dashboard and analysis builds, resulting in more reliable execution.
Data & Metadata Changes
Fixed
Resolved False Data Type Changes in Redshift Metadata Comparison
In Data & Metadata Changes for the Redshift connector, an issue in which columns were incorrectly marked as modified due to differences in how data types are displayed has been resolved. Columns with the same data type were incorrectly shown as changed, even though no changes had been made in the source.
The comparison logic has been updated to prevent false modification results when the data type remains unchanged.
Jobs
Fixed
Resolved Job Log Download Failure
In Jobs, an issue in which job log downloads stopped before completion and no file was generated has been resolved.
The download process has been fixed to ensure job logs are downloaded successfully for analysis and troubleshooting.
