Filter and Sort Apps
Managing a large number of serverless apps is now easier with new filtering and sorting controls directly on the apps page . Filter by machine type to instantly isolate apps running on specific hardware (e.g., H100, A100, L40) and monitor targeted resource allocation.
Expanded Analytics Metrics
The GET /v1/models/analytics and GET /v1/serverless/analytics endpoints now support fourteen additional metrics via the expand parameter, matching the metric families the dashboard surfaces: Error type breakdown , startup_error_count , connection_error_count , timeout_error_count , runtime_error_count for finer-grained failure attribution beyond the...
App-Level Retry Configuration
Apps can now register a default per-condition retry budget at deploy time with the new retry_config deployment option, using the same format as the X-Fal-Retry-Config request header. Set it as a class attribute on fal.App or under the app's table in pyproject.toml .
Deploy Messages and Annotations
You can now attach a freeform message and custom annotations to each revision when deploying: Messages and annotations are set at deploy time and stay with the revision. View and search them on the app's Versions page in the dashboard, or fetch them via the revisions API .
