Changelog

v2.9.8 (2026-11-10)

h3-query widget

The new h3-query widget queries an indexed H3 dataset and gives the results a name, so fused-map layers and SQL in your Canvas can use them. Results load straight into the browser.

H3 datasets in the File Explorer

The File Explorer has a new H3 datasets tab where you can browse your indexed H3 datasets, see their size and columns, query them on a map, and open the logs of the job that indexed them.

Improvements

• H3 analytics: dataset queries can now select by polygon, buffer by a k-ring, and choose how cells must be contained, and they run much faster
• H3 analytics: fused.h3.index can split a run across several instances with options={"instances": N}, and run objects have new error(), errors() and failed() methods
• Widgets: fused-map layers can read a canvas SQL source with "data": "{{name}}"
• Widgets: fused-map shares the hovered feature, selection, map size and zoom with your page, and lets the page set the selection
• The File Explorer listing can be sorted by name, date or size
• Batch job ids are now printed as job://<id>, which the Workbench turns into links to the job's logs

Bug fixes

• Fixed: fused.h3.index timing out on large folders
• Fixed: fused-map re-running queries after saving in the sidebar
• Fixed: fused-map not sending the map bounds until you moved the map
• Fixed: switching environments with fused env losing your sign-in
• Fixed: cancelled fused-map tile downloads continuing in the background

v2.9.7 (2026-11-05)

Redesigned File Explorer

The File Explorer has a new layout, now on for everyone. It has resizable panes, previews files only when you open them, and shortens long file names and paths so they stay readable.

Redesigned Job logs

The Job logs list now filters, sorts and pages large job histories, and lets you cancel several jobs at once. The job details pane has a new design and shows the parameters of fused.h3.partition and other task jobs.

Improvements

• Widgets: fused-map layer SQL now runs on tiled UDF and hex layers over the tiles in view, and editing a query re-runs it without downloading the tiles again
• Widgets: press Shift+Enter to run a fused-map query
• Canvas: click a selected folder's name to rename it, and HTML template nodes now have a reload button
• The bounds map picker now lets you choose a base map
• udf.map(...).df() combines results faster and warns you when they won't fit in memory
• fused.h3.partition has simpler arguments and accepts /mount paths for input and output

Bug fixes

• Fixed: udf.map runs timing out while other runs in the same map were still starting
• Fixed: reloading an embedded canvas losing its folders
• Fixed: deleting a UDF in an embedded canvas also deleting it from your account
• Fixed: two canvas folders ending up with the same name
• Fixed: clicking in the code editor zooming the canvas

v2.9.6 (2026-11-04)

Improvements

• Widgets: drag fused-map layers to reorder them (the top of the list draws on top), and the map now shows a coordinates readout
• Widgets: fused-map tooltips can be pinned, browsed, and copied, show links and raster values, and can be turned off from the sidebar
• Widgets: fused-map layer queries are no longer capped at 100k rows and warn you when results are large
• Canvas: new nodes start without a title, titles no longer change when you rename a UDF, and you can drag a node by its UDF name
• udf.map runs now use run_timeout instead of a short request timeout, and show a breakdown of what failed
• fused.cache keeps working when cache storage fails, and gives clearer errors when waiting on a cache lock times out

Bug fixes

• Fixed: browser UDFs returning cached results after their code changed
• Fixed: runs that ran out of memory not being reported as out-of-memory errors
• Fixed: udf.map marking finished runs as failed when results were slow to download
• Fixed: sign-in failing when a login redirect was repeated
• Fixed: sticky notes saving when you hadn't edited them and dropping markdown tables

v2.9.5 (2026-10-26)

Improvements

• Canvas: show or hide all UDFs in a folder from the toolbar
• Canvas: the canvas menu now opens Job logs, Preferences, and Integrations & secrets

• Widgets: clicking a hex in UDF code zooms only the fused-map widgets that UDF is connected to in the Canvas, or every map if it has no connections
• The Workbench Runtime now opens in a bottom panel
• Canvas checkpoints: you can now unlink a canvas from GitHub

Bug fixes

• Fixed: canvas import failing with "Public access is not allowed"
• Fixed: saves failing after a canvas import or checkpoint restore
• Fixed: a collapsed side pane in embedded canvases could still be dragged open from its edge

v2.9.3 (2026-10-21)

Bounds map picker

When a UDF's bounds parameter has a default value, you can now set it from a map in the code editor instead of typing coordinates. Drawing works across the antimeridian and on repeated world copies.

Improvements

• Widgets: fused-map hex layers show a zoomed-out overview of large datasets, with row counts on each file outline
• Widgets: clicking a hex in UDF code also zooms connected fused-map widgets
• Embedded canvases: add ?fused_embed_readonly=1 to show a Canvas as view-only, and the Runtime pane now follows the selected node
• --env and fused._env now accept a deployment URL

Bug fixes

• Shared view nodes now have Full screen and Copy link buttons
• Importing UDFs from GitHub is faster

Bug fixes

• Fixed: invalid fused-map layers disappearing from the sidebar

v2.9.1 (2026-10-06)

Fused map widget sidebar

The experimental fused-map widget sidebar now lets you add, duplicate, delete, and rename layers, pick palettes and color steps, and save edits straight into the widget config, with full undo/redo in the code editor. The map also detects the layer type from your UDF result, so you can show a map for any UDF, including single-image rasters.

Improvements

• Widgets: drop a UDF onto a fused-map node in the Canvas to add it as a layer
• Widgets: fused-map adds a reset-view button, a basemap that follows your theme, automatic retry for failed tiles, and a per-layer bounds lock that runs the UDF once instead of on every pan or zoom
• UDFs can now access the share token they were called with, and the new fused.api.shared_udf_url builds shared UDF links

UDFs no longer use per-UDF access tokens; sharing is at the canvas level. The new format is as follows:

• fc_**** prefix for canvas tokens
• my_udf_name for any UDFs in the canvas
• .parquet extension for Parquet files

Example:

# doctest: skip
https://udf.ai/fc_MY_CANVAS_TOKEN/my_udf_name.parquet

Previous fsh_**** tokens remain supported but are deprecated.

This will require you to share your canvas first. Read more about the new canvas tokens in the updated UDF as API guide.
