Releasesby GlyphModal 1.2.5
- It is now possible to set a custom name= for a Function without using serialized=True. This can be useful when decorating a function multiple times, e.g. applying multiple Modal configurations to the same implementation. It is now possible to start modal shell with a Modal Image ID (modal shell im-abc123).

Starting with the 2026-01 API version, the authorizationCode field on the OrderTransaction object is deprecated. We recommend using the paymentId field instead. The paymentId field provides a consistent, standardized identifier for payment reconciliation across all payment providers on Shopify.

Modal 1.2.6
- Fixed bug where iterating on a modal.Sandbox.exec output stream could raise unauthenticated errors.
Modal 1.3.0
Modal now supports Python 3.14. Python 3.14t (the free-threading build) support is currently a work in progress, because we are waiting for dependencies to be updated with free-threaded support. Additionally, Modal no longer supports Python 3.9, which has reached end-of-life.
Modal 1.2.4
- Fixed a bug in modal.Sandbox.exec when using stderr=StreamType.STDOUT (introduced in v1.2.3). Added a new h2_enabled option in modal.forward, which enables HTTP/2 advertisement in TLS establishment.
Modal 1.2.3
- CPU Functions can now be configured to run on non-preemptible capacity by setting nonpreemptible=True in the @app.function() or @app.cls() decorator. This feature is not currently available when requesting a GPU. Note that non-preemptibility incurs a 3x multiplier on CPU and memory pricing. See the Guide for more information on preemptions.
Modal 1.2.2
- modal.Image.run_commands now supports modal.Volume mounts. This can be helpful for accelerating builds by keeping a package manager cache on the Volume: python cache_vol = modal.Volume.from_name("cache-mount") cmd_using_cache = "..." image = modal.Image.debian_slim().run_commands(cmd_using_cache, volumes={"/cache": cache_vol}) All Modal objects now accept...
Modal 1.3.1
- We've improved our experimental support for Python 3.14t (free-threaded Python) inside Modal containers. The container environment will now use the Python implementation of the Protobuf runtime rather than the incompatible upb implementation.
Modal 1.3.2
- Modal objects now have a .get_dashboard_url() method. This method will return a URL for viewing that object on the Modal dashboard: python fc = f.spawn() print(fc.get_dashboard_url()) # Easy access to logs, etc.
Modal 1.2.1
- It's now possible to override the default -dev suffix applied to the autogenerated URLs for ephemeral Apps (i.e., when using modal serve) via a new dev_suffix field in the .modal.toml config file, or equivalently with the MODAL_DEV_SUFFIX environment variable.
