DML into frozen regions of dynamic tables (General availability)
You can now use DML statements (INSERT, UPDATE, MERGE, DELETE) to modify rows directly in the frozen region of a dynamic table. This enables use cases such as GDPR-required row deletions or correcting specific records without triggering a full refresh of the active region. For more information, see DML into a frozen region .
Pass-through policies for dynamic tables with incremental refresh (General availability)
Dynamic tables that have base tables with arbitrary masking or row access policies can now maintain incremental refresh when the policy is pass-through for the role used during refresh (that is, when the refresh role has unrestricted access to all rows and columns regardless of the policy condition).

Code scanning shows AI security detections on pull requests
GitHub code scanning now surfaces AI-powered security detections directly on pull requests, expanding vulnerability coverage to languages and frameworks not currently supported by CodeQL. These detections help teams identify and address potential issues in parts of the codebase that previously had no native scanning coverage, all before code is merged.
Dependabot version updates introduce default package cooldown
Dependabot now waits until a new release has been available on its registry for at least three days before opening a version update pull request. This cooldown is now the default and requires no configuration.
