> August 2026 release notes for Orchestrator in Automation Cloud.

## August 3, 2026

### New storage bucket provider: Google Cloud Storage

Add Google Cloud Storage (GCS) as a new storage bucket provider in Orchestrator. Configure authentication using a service account key. For more information, see [Managing storage buckets](../user-guide/managing-storage-buckets.md).

### Azure Storage bucket authentication using service-principal connections

Authenticate Azure Storage buckets using Integration Services service-principal connections instead of storage-account access keys. This enables customers' security teams to enforce Entra-based identity and access management policies. For configuration details, see [Managing storage buckets](../user-guide/managing-storage-buckets.md).

### Tenant-level Jobs view: add column parity with folder-level view

The cross-folder Jobs view now includes all columns available in folder-level Jobs views, including Started/Ended (relative and absolute), Creation Time, Source, Priority, Machine, Hostname, User interaction, and Healing Agent status. All added columns default to hidden; enable them via the Columns dropdown. See [Jobs monitoring](../user-guide/jobs-monitoring.md) for details.

### Side panels now overlay primary content

Sidepanels now render on top of primary content instead of pushing it aside. Panels are resizable via a drag handle, with user-chosen width persisting per session. No backdrop is displayed, so interactions with the underlying grid or list continue while the panel is open.

### Debug jobs now display generic Process label

Debug jobs now consistently display the `[Studio Debugging]` Process label regardless of whether they are Desktop or Web session types. This ensures a uniform debugging experience across job types.

### OpenAPI Public profile is now the default

The Orchestrator default API specification is now compliant with the OpenAPI 3.0 specification. The previous specification (V20, based on Swagger 2.0) is deprecated as of this release and will be removed in September 2026.
For more information and the full deprecation timeline, see [Read me](../api-guide/read-me.md).

### Queue trigger: batch processing disabled for Maestro processes

When configuring a queue trigger for a Maestro process, the **Minimum number of items to trigger the first job** and **Another job is triggered after each** fields are now fixed to **1** and cannot be changed. See [Queue triggers](../user-guide/queue-triggers.md) for details.

### Automation Cloud Robots: clearer machine size label

In the **Additional Settings** step of process configuration, the machine size fields for cross-platform processes are renamed for clarity: **Cloud Robot - Serverless** is now **Cloud serverless machine size**. The **Job Priority** selector no longer displays a required-field asterisk that incorrectly marked the field as mandatory. For more information, see [Managing processes](../user-guide/managing-processes.md).
