June 2026

This page documents all customer-facing changes to the DataGrail application made in June 2026. Additional entries will be added every week on Friday.

Week of June 8

🛠 Changes Made

  • Microsoft UET Consent Mode — new documentation walks you through configuring Consent Mode for the Microsoft Ad Platform.
  • Arity — the Arity integration now supports Access (data disclosure) requests in addition to deletion.
  • Consent Analytics — the analytics dashboard has a refreshed full-width layout with redesigned charts, clearer compliance tables, and CSV export.
  • Accessibility — button keyboard-focus outlines now meet WCAG contrast requirements for clearer keyboard navigation.

🐛 Bugs Squashed

  • Resolved an issue where one invalid URL could fail an entire Consent scan batch; invalid URLs are now validated up front and automatically disabled after repeated failures.
  • Resolved an issue where the bulk Process Requests action reset your view to "All Requests" instead of preserving your filters.
  • Resolved an issue where integrations could not be deselected on deletion requests; the include/exclude list is now editable until deletion runs.
  • Resolved an issue where re-adding a previously deleted Consent scan URL returned a "URL has already been taken" error.

Week of June 1

🚀 Features Added

  • Assessments API — programmatically create assessments from templates, submit answers with validation, monitor progress, and download finished assessments as PDFs. Requires an API key with the new Assessment and AssessmentTemplate scopes.
  • Assessment Change History — every edit, contributor action, document upload, AI suggestion, and status change is now automatically logged with a full audit trail. Filter by question, contributor, or activity type and export as CSV for audit documentation.
  • Assessment approver assignment — restrict who can approve a Risk Monitor assessment by assigning a specific approver.
  • Assessment @mention support in comments — tag contributors and admins directly in assessment comments to notify them of specific questions or discussions.
  • Assessment # reference autocomplete — insert clickable cross-references to any question or section directly from within a comment.
  • Assessment comment resolve/unresolve — close resolved comment threads to reduce noise; toggle a filter to view them again when needed.
  • Assessment link support in comments — external links in assessment comments are now clickable, with a safety prompt before opening.
  • Data Classification tab on System Profile — view Data Classification results scoped to a specific system directly from its profile page, with the same table, filters, and details drawer you already know from the main Data Classification page.
  • Ironclad for Live Data Map — Ironclad is now available as a connectable integration for the Live Data Map.
  • Self-service SAML/SSO domain management — add and remove email domains for SAML/SSO login directly from Settings > Additional Domains, without opening a support ticket. Supports bulk entry, real-time validation, and immediate effect.
  • DG-hosted mailer custom domain setup — configure and validate custom email domains for DataGrail-hosted transactional mailers directly in settings, with step-by-step DNS configuration instructions.
  • Vera Global Context — the Global Context editor is now available directly from the Vera home screen as its own dedicated tab.

🛠 Changes Made

  • Vera real-time agent steps — Vera now surfaces each tool she uses as a collapsible step in the conversation, showing what she searched, fetched, or analyzed and how long it took. Steps collapse by default so the answer stays front and center.
  • Consent layouts — the layouts page is dramatically faster and more reliable, eliminating the failure mode that caused multi-minute load times under database pressure.
  • Request Manager email search — searching for a data subject by email in the privacy request inbox is now over 100× faster.
  • System Detection on new authentication — configuring a new System Detection-capable authentication now immediately triggers detection jobs, so systems appear in your inventory in under an hour instead of 24–48 hours.
  • Bulk system edit marks assessments as reviewed — bulk-editing systems in the Live Data Map now automatically marks their linked assessments as reviewed.

🐛 Bugs Squashed

  • Resolved an issue where Consent Analytics CSV downloads were failing.
  • Resolved an issue where the System Inventory page could time out under cold-cache conditions.
  • Resolved an issue where dates in the Processing Activities table were displaying in an incorrect format.
  • Resolved several UI issues in the Invite New User dialog.
  • Resolved an issue where the Vera MCP Write Access toggle appeared to revert visually after being enabled.
  • Resolved issues where cloned Consent Projects could have corrupted layer data or missing group assignments.
  • Resolved an issue where the base taxonomy root node displayed "DataGrail Base Taxonomy" instead of the customer's account name.
  • Resolved an issue where verification reminder emails were not sent for requests stuck in an initializing workflow state.
  • Resolved an issue where direct contact requests remained stuck in a queued state after ticket closure.
