SDK Enhancements​

Elixir SDK General Availability​

The Elixir Thin Client SDK enables developers to integrate Harness FME feature flagging and event tracking directly into their Elixir applications. Leveraging Split Daemon (splitd), this lightweight SDK provides highly performant first-class FME support within Elixir.

Thanks are due to the team at Cars.com for the initial implementation, which they contributed to the FME user community. The Harness engineering team then finalized the work, making it generally available as a Harness-supported FME SDK.

FME Thin Client SDK + Splitd Architecture​

FME Thin Client SDKs are known for their lightweight footprint and are always paired with Split Daemon (splitd). Splitd performs the storage and compute intensive operations and easily scales to high traffic volumes.

Release Agent (AI Chatbot)​

AI-Generated Summary Now Supports Follow-Up Questions​

The "Switch" AI chatbot in Harness Feature Management and Experimentation (FME) has been renamed to "Release Agent" and now supports follow-up questions after you click "Summarize" in metric details. To see the Metric summary and ask follow-up questions:

  1. Drill into a metric tile on a Metrics impact dashboard and click Summarize.
  2. After viewing the summary, type your follow-up question and click Continue conversation in Release Agent.
  3. Continue to ask additional follow-up questions if you would like, including suggestions for next steps. Image Image Note: The transition from "Switch" to "Release Agent" will take place gradually. For now, you'll still see Ask Switch in the lower left navigation of Harness Feature Management and Experimentation:

Targeting​

Large segments​

Harness Feature Management and Experimentation (FME) now supports "Large segments" (lists of targeting IDs) that can contain more than 100,000 IDs. Large segments support multiple use cases where bulk targeting of specific IDs is required:

  • Communicating with more than 100,000 specific customers in-app after an incident.
  • Targeting any set of users based on attributes not available within the app at runtime.
  • Performing large-scale A/B tests on specific user bases, exported from external tools. Effective immediately, Enterprise tier customers may create and use Large segments containing up to one million (1,000,000) IDs. Significantly higher limits are available by request. Image Learn more about Large segments and the ways they differ from Standard segments in the documentation:
  • Create a segment
  • Target segments Note: The initial release of Large segments is focused on client-side SDK usage only. Server-side SDKs do not yet support Large segments, but soon will. Until they are supported, evaluations of feature flags that target Large segments will return control on server-side SDKs.
Admin API Endpoints​

After familiarizing yourself with Large segments at the above links, you may find these UI and API equivalent documentation links handy for automating the steps via the Admin API:

Steps for creating and populating a Large segment using either UI or API​
  1. Create a Large segment (just metadata, no Environment definition)
  1. Create a definition for a Large segment in an Environment (no user IDs)
  1. Add user IDs to a Large segment (to the definition created in step 2)
Adding an approval step via Admin API​

To add an approval step for Large segment creation or update when using the Admin API, reference this example:  Open Change Request to add members to a Large Segment.

Targeting​

Semantic Versioning (SemVer) Attribute Dictionary Support​

Split FME now supports SemVer type attributes and suggested values in the attribute dictionary:

  • Admins can create SemVer typed attribute names and suggested values.
  • Users can see the SemVer attribute names and suggested values when editing targeting rules. Attribute dictionary support reduces guesswork and manual errors when editing targeting rules.
What you need to know in a nutshell:​
  • The semver standard calls for versions to be formatted as major.minor.patch
  • Split FME added SemVer support on June 6th, 2024 , eliminating the need to write regular expressions (i.e. regex) to target version ranges or "is a version less than or equal to x.y.z"
  • This update adds the benefits of standardized attribute names and suggested values delivered by our Attribute Dictionary.
What SemVer attribute support looks like to an admin:​

Admins can create a custom attribute of type "Semver" and optionally enter suggested values. Image

What SemVer attribute support looks like to a user:​

Choose an attribute name from the attribute dictionary, such as "ios_version" Image If the chosen attribute is of type SemVer, the appropriate matchers are shown: Image If "is in list" is chosen as the matcher type, suggested values are shown: Image

Alerts​

Guardrail and Key Metric Alerts Now Shown in the Alerts Table​

Previously, the Alerts table on the Monitoring tab displayed Metric alerts only. Guardrail Metric alerts and Key Metric alerts generated email notifications to feature flag owners, but were not persisted in the UI. Now all three types of alerts are shown on each flag's Monitoring tab for any team member to see. The table has been simplified to display the most valuable fields at a glance, reducing cognitive load. Details less critical for quick triage remain available under an info icon. Image As a refresher, here is quick summary of the three alert types:

  • Metric Alert
    • Triggered: when the relative or absolute impact threshold in an Alert policy is reached
    • Configured: at the metric level, by creating an Alert policy
    • Monitors: percentage rollouts for all flags which have the same traffic type as the metric
  • Guardrail Metric Alert
    • Triggered: when any statistically significant impact is detected, either desirable or undesirable
    • Configured: at the metric level, by marking a metric's category as "Guardrail"
    • Monitors: percentage rollouts for all flags which have the same traffic type as the metric
  • Key Metric Alert
    • Triggered: when any statistically significant impact is detected, either desirable or undesirable
    • Configured: at the feature flag level, by marking a metric as a "Key metric" for that flag
    • Monitors: percentage rollouts only for flags where the metric is a Key metric

Better Together: Split + Harness​

New Colors, Names for Organization and Workspace​

Starting on September 30th, we began a progressive rollout to update the Split UI, bringing it closer to the look of Harness: Image Beyond a change in color scheme, you will also see two changes to terminology:

  • Workspaces will now be known as Projects in the UI
  • Organizations will now be known as Accounts in the UI

Image Note: These terminology changes are being made only to labels in the UI at this time. To avoid introducing a breaking change, the Admin API will continue to use the strings ws, workspace, organizationId, and orgId until further notice.

2024-09-12​

Monitoring​

Traffic Insights and Alerts​

The Alerts tab has been renamed Monitoring and expanded to show real-time traffic insights over time and any alerts fired for the flag on a single page.

Image

By default, traffic over the Last 48 hours is shown, but you may also select the Last 7 days, another Time range, or a specific Feature flag version:

Image

Changes made to flags (i.e., new flag versions) are displayed as vertical bars for context:

Metrics​

Introducing Supporting Metrics​

We’re excited to announce the next step in improving metric categorization for your feature releases and experiments: Supporting metrics. This new metric category gives you greater control over metrics monitored per feature flag, helping you focus on what truly matters.

What’s changing?​

On the Metrics impact page, we have replaced “Organizational metrics” with “Supporting metrics.” Now, you can easily select specific additional metrics to track for each release, reducing noise and making it easier to analyze your results.

How do I assign flag-specific metrics?​

Key metrics and Supporting metrics are specific to individual feature flags, and can be managed on a flag’s Metrics impact tab. Under each category, click “Add metric” to initiate the process of assigning metrics to the category. Once metrics are added, you can wait until the next scheduled calculation or manually “Recalculate metrics” to see results.

Image

How do I ensure my important metrics are still monitored for every flag?​

In June, Split introduced Guardrail metrics to improve your ability to define which metrics should be monitored for every flag. Guardrail metrics include automated alerting, meaning flag owners will be notified as their releases or experiments impact these metrics. 

Since Organizational metrics will no longer be available, we recommend adding important metrics to the new Guardrail metrics category ASAP to ensure they continue to be protected and limit any disruption of analyzing metric results.

Guardrail metrics can be assigned in the metric definition:

Image

The combination of Key metrics, Guardrail metrics, and Supporting metrics will reduce noise and increase sensitivity while ensuring important metrics are monitored for every feature release or experiment. We welcome your feedback as we continue to improve our metric results!

2024-09-04​

Monitoring​

Guardrail Metric Alerts​

Flag owners will now automatically receive alerts on any guardrail metric without manual configuration.

Alerts are sent to flag owners whenever a guardrail metric moves significantly in the desired or undesired direction. This feature is designed to help you make safe and accurate release decisions in a timely manner.

As a reminder, Guardrail Metrics (released 2024-06-14) ensure that an organization’s most crucial metrics are protected and monitored throughout every feature release and experiment by making their calculation automatic and mandatory for all flags that use the same traffic type as the metric.

Metrics are set as guardrail metrics for your workspace on the Metric definition page. View the docs here

June 2024​

2024-06-14​

Monitoring​

Guardrail Metrics​

Users can now categorize their organization’s most important metrics as  “guardrails”. Guardrail metrics are those your organization wants to protect during a feature release or experiment. Metrics are set as guardrail metrics for your workspace on the Metric definition page.

2024-06-06​

SDK Enhancements​

Semantic Versioning Targeting​

Using the latest Split SDKs, users can more easily define targeting rules for new features based on app, OS, and other versions using attribute-based targeting. The SDK then automatically serves the appropriate treatment to users without needing additional code configurations. Split’s native Semantic Versioning Targeting removes the additional complexities and manual work that comes with targeting different application versions, allowing users to seamlessly deliver different experiences.
