Drizzle Studio in the Neon Console

We're excited to announce that the Tables page in the Neon Console, which lets you explore the tables and data in your Neon databases, is now powered by Drizzle Studio. This integration introduces several new capabilities to the Tables page, including the ability to add, update, and delete records, filter data, add or remove columns, drop or truncate tables, and export data in .json and .csv formats.

Postgres version updates

The Postgres versions supported by Neon have been updated to 14.12, 15.7, and 16.3, respectively.

Fixes & improvements

  • The Neon CLI connection-string command and the Neon API Get connection URI method now generate a connection URI with a postgresql:// scheme designator instead of the shorter postgres:// designator. While both scheme designators are valid, we found the longer version to be more widely supported.
  • Added validation for Autosuspend minimum settings. For setting details, see Autosuspend limits.
  • Added a Charges to date field to the Billing summary section of the Billing page.
  • You can now access the Edit compute endpoint modal from the Branches widget on the Dashboard by clicking the compute endpoint link.
  • Fixed an issue on the Branches page that prevented a new branch from being listed immediately after it was created.
  • Fixed a styling issue that prevented the "Forgot password?" link from being fully visible on the Neon sign-in page while in dark mode.
