The latest version is always available to download from the Cutover Connect Settings page in your Cutover environment.
Select your Connect project, and download the latest Connect package, which includes all required assets or just the Connect Java ‘JAR’ executable program. Once downloaded, follow your internal process to upgrade Cutover Connect.
Note: We recommend testing upgrades in a non-production environment first, especially if you use Cutover Connect for critical integrations.
Latest release:
Cutover Connect 7.1.7 - December 10th, 2025 - Latest
What’s New
- Added new config files—cli.yml, eventbus.yml, and connectpi.yml—for better management of ScriptExecutor, Message Bus, and Connect API authentication.
- Enhanced Connect API authorization with ADFS JWS roles.
- Introduced a lightweight sidecar option for authenticated GET requests via webapi-routes.yml.
- Added connect.enable_legacy_features setting to ease transition from older features.
Improvements
- Upgraded Spring Boot, security dependencies, and logging to JSON format for better stability and clarity.
- Updated AWS request signing and upgraded to AWS SDK v2 for enhanced security.
- Kerberos proxy support.
What’s Important to Know
A few older mechanisms have now been fully retired, which may require updates to your existing configurations:
- ExecuteHttpCallback removed
- cacheableToken in webapi-routes.yml no longer supported
- Command chaining in ScriptExecutor routes discontinued
If any of your integrations rely on these older approaches, you’ll need to update them to the newer supported methods.
