Our “Why did it fail?” feature now integrates better with your chosen AI-powered development workflows. When our AI shares its diagnosis and proposed solution, the “Copy analysis for use in AI tools” button will copy to clipboard:

• The relevant error log lines from your deploy
• Diagnosis of the problem
• The proposed solution

This is ready to paste into your AI tool of choice, unlocking a closer feedback loop to speed up bug resolution and get your deploy up and running error-free!

Build, deploy, and host Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers on Netlify today. This emerging protocol lets you expose tools, resources, and prompts to AI agents via the open MCP standard. This helps streamline creating good agent experiences and bringing powerful context-aware capabilities to the AI applications your end users are relying upon.

Read the “Building MCPs with Netlify” developer guide by Sean Roberts to get started.

Netlify now makes it even easier to deploy zipped site builds with improved support for multipart/form-data. The updated deploy flow encourages developers to include a title field — a descriptive message similar to a git commit — explaining the purpose of the deploy. This title appears in the Netlify UI, helping teams track changes, review builds faster, and maintain better deploy hygiene.

Zip it, tag it, ship it 🚀 Get started with this developer guide.

When using the Netlify context files in Cursor or Windsurf, whenever the agents generate code with Netlify Forms, they will add the honeypot field to make your forms more secure by default.

We’ve made a couple improvements to our audit log entries to better help you understand changes to your teams and sites.

When an environment variable is updated, you will now see the name of the environment variable (key) in the audit log.

When a team member’s role is updated, you will now see the old and new role in the audit log.

If you subscribe to Team membership notifications from our Netlify Slack app, then you will also see the old and new role. This only applies to any events made on or after April 14th, 2025.

We’ve made meaningful Netlify CLI performance improvements in v20.0.0, making your workflow 2 to 3x faster with:

• ~400ms faster startup for every command
• >2s faster execution for most commands
• ~5s faster builds for Next.js apps

Get the latest by running:

npm install -g netlify-cli@latest

For an additional 10-15% performance boost, use Node.js 22.8.0 or later.

Today, we’re making Preview Servers available to everyone. These cloud-hosted development environments change how teams and AI agents collaborate on web projects. Initially introduced in private…

When using a partner integration to deploy your site, the partner may now include helpful links back into their platform which you’ll see in the site overview page.

This will make it more seamless for you to move between the Netlify UI and your chosen integration for making changes to your site.

Learn more about including deploy_origin metadata from our guide on deploying sites from AI tools.

Following the release of a new API for partners to deploy fullstack apps, we’re now introducing another addition, an API to access Functions and Edge Functions logs.

AI agents and integrations can now analyze more of Netlify logs in real-time to troubleshoot issues with deploys and functions automatically.
