New AUI announcement?

Hello everyone,

My team is responsible for the AUI release within Confluence Cloud.

First off, this issue is completely separate from the previous CONFCLOUD-75937 issue, the timing just happens to be very coincidental.

To provide some more context, we upgraded the version of AUI shipped with Confluence Cloud from 6.1.4 to 7.6.2. @marc the original planned release date was in May, which we released, but had to roll back due to some issues with testing infrastructure internally. We just re-released the update this week.

We followed the AUI upgrade guides and documentation as best as we could to preemptively squash any issues that might spring up, but obviously we missed this scenario within 3rd party apps. Like Alex said, we now have a fix ready to go that should resolve the issue, we are just waiting on some verification and then the deployment process.

I apologize for any inconvenience this caused, and we will explore ways for us to better test changes in a 3rd party environment in the future so that we can avoid these disruptions.

Looking to the future, this is part 1 of a 4-part upgrade to Confluence Cloud’s AUI library. We will be publishing a community post later today that outlines some of the details behind the upgrade and what to look out for as developers going forward.

I will update this thread with a link to the community post once it is live.
