Stax has made changes to the Stax Workloads API to make it easier to find Workloads you have deployed into your Stax-managed AWS accounts. These filters are available in the API and the SDK.

The new filters available are:

| Filter Name | Description | | --- | --- | | account_names | Comma-delimited list of Stax Account Names. Returns all Workloads deployed to these Accounts Names. | | account_types | Comma-delimited list of Stax Account Types. Returns all Workloads deployed to these Account Types. | | account_ids | Comma-delimited list of Stax Account IDs. Returns all Workloads deployed to these Account IDs. | | catalogue_names | Comma-delimited list of Stax Workload Catalogue Names. Returns all Workloads deployed with these Workload Catalogue Names. | | catalogue_ids | Comma-delimited list of Stax Workload Catalogue IDs. Returns all Workloads deployed with these Catalogue IDs. | | catalogue_version | Only return Workloads launched from this Stax Workload Catalogue Version (eg. 1.0.0). Requires catalogue_ids to also be provided. |

Examples​

Example 1: Return all Stax Workloads deployed to accounts of type 'billing'​

GET https://api.au1.staxapp.cloud/20190206/workloads?account_types=billing

Example 2: Return all Stax Workloads with a specific Catalog ID and Version​

GET https://api.au1.staxapp.cloud/20190206/workloads?catalogue_ids=b5e1c1a5-ee96-4ea3-8343-8704f5f67596&catalogue_version=2.0.1

Stax has updated the Global Filters drop-down to include data that you are needing access to every day or every week. With this change, you will be able to quickly scan through the list of Views and Segments that you use the most and quickly change between them. By adding this functionality, we've removed a few unnecessary clicks each and every time you want to change the data that you are looking at.

If a changelog is published in the forest, and nobody sees it, did it really happen?

We want you to know about great new Stax features as soon as they're available. Stax has today introduced an RSS/Atom feed for changelog entries, so you can subscribe to receive them in whichever fashion suits your needs best.

You can subscribe to the feeds using the following URLs:

• Atom: https://stax.io/changelog/atom.xml

• RSS: https://stax.io/changelog/rss.xml

When you create a VPC using [Stax Networks]((/hc/en-us/articles/4452164778383), VPC Flow Logs are stored in an S3 bucket in your logging account by default. With this new feature, Stax provides you with the capability to direct flow logs to a CloudWatch Log Group, in addition to the S3 bucket. This CloudWatch log group resides in the same account as the VPC, making it easy to access these logs when you need them.

This feature must be enabled using the Stax API, or via the Python SDK. More information on how to set it up can be found in the docs.

Stax has added a new Network Access Control List (NACL) entry for the Private Subnet in your Stax VPCs. This new NACL is configured with Rule #201 and will permit inbound UDP traffic from the ephemeral ports 1024-65535.

What does this mean for me?​

Any existing rules with #201 not created by Stax will need to be removed to ensure the addition is successful. To ensure that this is applied to your Stax VPCs you will need to trigger an update of your Stax VPCs. You can trigger an update by either changing the configuration of, or modifying the tags associated with your VPC.

If you have any questions regarding this change, please raise a support case with your enquiry.

You can now retrieve AWS accounts from the Stax API based on their name with the new account_names filter. The filter allows you to provide a comma-delimited list of account names for retrieval.
