At a glance usage metrics for paid plan users

A few weeks ago, we added at-a-glance usage metrics on the Free Plan to help users track account-level usage. This widget is now available on all Neon plans. You can find it on your Projects page in the Neon Console.

And don't forget to check out this week's fixes and improvements:

Fixes & improvements
  • Neon Authorize

    Neon Authorize is now supported on Postgres 17. This recently introduced feature lets you move Postgres Row-Level Security (RLS) policies into your codebase. To learn more, read the announcement or check out the docs.

  • Neon Vercel Integration

    The Neon Vercel Integration is now supported on Organization-owned projects.

  • Neon API updates

    We've introduced several new endpoints for managing Organizations in Neon. The new endpoints include:

  • Fixes

    • A previously specified query was not cleared from the Neon SQL Editor state after selecting a different query from the History list. This caused the previous query to be run instead of the newly selected query when clicking Run.

    • Resetting a child branch from an unprotected parent branch regenerated Postgres role passwords on the child branch. Passwords should only be regenerated when the parent branch is defined as a protected branch.

    • Fixed an issue on the Monitoring page where lines on the RAM and Working set size graphs overflowed the graph area.

    • Removed usage alerts from shared Neon projects. The alerts should only appear for project owners.

    • Added validation that prevents an Organization name field from being left blank when creating a new Organization.

    • Fixed an issue with the psql \help or \h commands accessible via the Neon SQL Editor. The specified help page failed to display.

      Did you know?

      The Neon SQL Editor supports psql meta-commands, which act like shortcuts for interacting with your database. If you are already familiar with using meta-commands from the psql command-line interface, you can use many of those same commands in the SQL Editor.

      To get a list of supported commands, use \?. For more info, see the meta-commands section of our Query with Neon's SQL Editor docs page.
