Stable Releases
Below is a list of all of the Stable releases of Humio, in reverse order of their release — the latest at the top and the oldest at the bottom. If you want to see all of the Preview releases go to the Preview Releases page for a list of them. For a list of all releases, Preview and Stable, go to the All Releases page.
Remember, the way to distinguish between Preview and Stable releases is based on the secondary number for the release. If it’s an even number, it indicates it’s a stable release; if the secondary number is an odd number, it indicates it’s a preview of the stable release that will follow it. See the main Humio Releases page for a more detailed explanation of this numbering system.
1.18.3
Bug fix release
Release Date: 2021-01-20
Minimum previous Humio version: 1.16.0
Requires data migrations: false
Has changes to configuration: false
Beginning with version 1.17.0, if your current version of Humio is not directly able to upgrade to the new version, you will get an error if you attempt to start up the incompatible version. The 1.18.3 release is only compatible with Humio release 1.16.0 and newer. This means that you will have to ensure that you have upgraded at least to 1.16.0 before trying to upgrade to 1.18.3. In case you need to do a rollback, this can also ONLY happen back to 1.16.0 or newer. Rolling directly back to an earlier release can result in data loss.
Changelog
- Fix bug where the format() function produced wrong output for some floating-point numbers
- Update dependencies with known vulnerabilities
- Do not retry a query when getting a HTTP 400 error
- Do not cache cancelled queries.
1.18.2
Bug fix release
Release Date: 2021-01-08
Minimum previous Humio version: 1.16.0
Requires data migrations: false
Has changes to configuration: false
Beginning with version 1.17.0, if your current version of Humio is not directly able to upgrade to the new version, you will get an error if you attempt to start up the incompatible version. The 1.18.2 release is only compatible with Humio release 1.16.0 and newer. This means that you will have to ensure that you have upgraded at least to 1.16.0 before trying to upgrade to 1.18.2. In case you need to do a rollback, this can also ONLY happen back to 1.16.0 or newer. Rolling directly back to an earlier release can result in data loss.
Changelog
- Fixes bug where Humio could end in a corrupted state, needing manual intervention before working again.
- Fixes bug so as to reduce contention on the Query input queue.
- Adds a new configuration option for auth0: AUTH_ALLOW_SIGNUP. Default value is true.

1.18.1
Bug fix release
Release Date: 2020-12-17
Minimum previous Humio version: 1.16.0
Requires data migrations: false
Has changes to configuration: false
Beginning with version 1.17.0, if your current version of Humio is not directly able to upgrade to the new version, you will get an error if you attempt to start up the incompatible version. The 1.18.1 release is only compatible with Humio release 1.16.0 and newer. This means that you will have to ensure that you have upgraded to minimum 1.16.0 before trying to upgrade to 1.18.1. In case you need to do a rollback, this can also ONLY happen back to 1.16.0 or newer, rolling directly back to an earlier release can result in data loss.
Changelog
- Fixes a bug where some valid repeating queries would not validate in alerts
- Fixes a bug where the merge of mini segments could fail during sampling of input for compression.
- Fixes a bug where a query would not start automatically when requesting to filter or group by a value.
- Fixes a bug that would allow users with read access to be able to delete a file (#10133)
- Fixes a bug where queries with
@timestamp=x where x was a timestamp with the current search interval could fail
- Fixes a bug where the permissions check on editing a connection from a view to a repository allowed altering the search prefix of connections other than the one the user currently was allowed to edit.
- Fixes a bug where
top([a,b], sum=f) ignored events where f was not a positive integer. Now it ignores negative and non-numerical input but rounds decimal numbers to integer value.
- Fixes a bug where the
to parameter to unit:convert would cause internal server errors instead of validation errors.
- Only install default Humio parser to the Humio view if it is missing. No longer overwriting local changes.
- Add GraphQL mutation to update the runAsUser for a read only dashboard token.
- Increase number of vCPUs used when parsing TCP ingest, twice the number of the 1.18.0 build.
- Improve handling of a node being missing from the cluster for a long time by letting other nodes handle the parts of the query that node would normally do.
- Improve performance of S3 archiving when many repositories have the feature enabled.
- Add non-sensitive logging that lists the versions of Humio running in the cluster. These logs can be found by searching the Humio debug log for “cluster_versions”.
1.18.0
Repeating Queries, search result caching and new query functions.
Release Date: 2020-11-26
Minimum previous Humio version: 1.16.0
Requires data migrations: false
Has changes to configuration: true
Repeating Queries, search result caching and new query functions.
This release promotes the latest 1.17 release from preview to stable.
Beginning with version 1.17.0, if your current version of Humio is not directly able to upgrade to the new version, you will get an error if you attempt to start up the incompatible version. The 1.18.0 release is only compatible with Humio release 1.16.0 and newer. This means that you will have to ensure that you have upgraded to minimum 1.16.0 before trying to upgrade to 1.18.0. In case you need to do a rollback, this can also ONLY happen back to 1.16.0 or newer, rolling directly back to an earlier release can result in data loss.
Repeating Queries
Humio can now run repeating queries using the beta:repeating() function. These are live queries that are implemented by repeatedly making a query. This allows using functions in alerts and dashboards that typically do not work in live queries, such as selfJoin() or selfJoinFilter(). See the function docs for more information.
Improved Security for Alerts
In order to prevent alert notifiers being used to probe services on the internal network (eg. Zookeeper or the AWS metadata service), Humio now has an IP filter on alert notifiers. The default is to block access to all link-local addresses and any addresses on the internal network; however, you can opt-in to the old behavior by setting the configuration option IP_FILTER_NOTIFIERS to allow all. See IP Filter documentation.
New experimental query function series()
A new experimental query function called series() has been added. It needs to be explicitly enabled on the cluster
using the config option SERIES_ENABLED=true.
series() improves upon session() and collect() for grouping events into transactions.
What used to be done with:
groupby(id, function=session(function=collect([fields, ...])))
can now be done using:
groupby(id, function=series([fields, ..])).
See docs for more details.
Search result caching
This new feature stores a copy of live search results to the local disk in the server nodes, and reuses the relevant parts of that cached result when an identical live search is later started. Caching is controlled with the config option QUERY_CACHE_MIN_COST, which has a default value of 1000. To disable caching, set the config option to a very high number, such as 9223372036854775807 (max long value).

1.16.0
Improved alerts and addition of ingest timestamps
Release Date: 2020-10-09
Minimum previous Humio version: 1.12.0
Requires data migrations: true
Has changes to configuration: true
This release promotes the latest 1.15 release from preview to stable.
New features
Ingest timestamps
Humio will set ingest timestamps on all events. This is set in the field named @ingesttimestamp. In later versions, Humio will also support specifying the search time interval using @ingesttimestamp when searching. This will support use cases where data is backfilled etc.
Alerts and notifiers
Field based throttling
It is now possible to make an alert throttle based on a field, so that new values for the field trigger the alert, but already seen values do not until the throttle period has elapsed. See docs.
Notifier logging to a Humio repository
It is now possible to configure an alert notifier that will log all events to a Humio repository. See docs.
Slack notifier upgrade to notify multiple Slack channels
It is now possible to use the Slack notifier to notify multiple Slack channels at once. See docs.
Events as HTML table
In an email notifier, it is now possible to format the events as an HTML table using the new message template {events_html}. Currently, the order of the columns is not well-defined. This problem will be fixed in the 1.17.0 release. See docs.
It is now possible to configure an alert notifier to not use the HTTP proxy configured in Humio. See docs.
User signup/login flow
Signup & Login
Redesigned signup/login pages. For cloud, we have have split the behavior so users have to explicitly either login or signup.
Invite flow
When adding a user to Humio they will now by default get an email telling them that they have been invited to use Humio. See docs.
It is now possible to configure Humio to not use the globally configured HTTP proxy for communcation with S3. See docs.
Auto-balanced partition table suggestions
When changing digest and storage partitions it is now possible to get auto-balanced suggestions based on node zone and replication factor settings (via ZONE, DIGEST_REPLICATION_FACTOR and STORAGE_REPLICATION_FACTOR configurations). See docs.
Breaking changes
AWS Java SDK V2
The AWS SDK Humio uses has been upgraded to v2. When configuring Humio bucket storage with Java system properties, the access key must now be in the aws.secretAccessKey property instead of the aws.secretKey property.

1.14.0
Free text search, Load balancing of queries and TLS support.
Release Date: 2020-08-26
Minimum previous Humio version: 1.12.0
Requires data migrations: true
Has changes to configuration: true
This release promotes the latest 1.13 release from preview to stable.
Free text search
Free text search now searches all fields rather than only the @rawstring field.
Load balancing of queries
Humio can now balance and reuse existing queries internally in the cluster. Load balancer configuration to achieve this is no longer needed. See Reverse proxy configuration and Humio Configuration.
TLS support
TLS Encrypt communication using TLS to/from Zookeeper, Kafka, and other Humio nodes.
Iplocation database management changed
The database used as data source for the ipLocation() query function must be updated within 30 days when a new version of the database is made public by MaxMind. To comply with this, the database is no longer shipped as part of the Humio artifacts but will either:
- Be fetched automatically by Humio provided that Humio is allowed to connect to the db update service hosted by Humio. This is the default behaviour.
- Have to be updated manually (See ipLocation())
If the database cannot be automatically updated and no database is provided manually, the ipLocation() query function will no longer work.
Configuration change: Controlling what nodes to use as query coordinators
Due to the load balancing in Humio, customers that previously relied on load balancing to control which nodes are query coordinators now need to set QUERY_COORDINATOR to false on nodes they do not want to become query coordinators. See Reverse proxy configuration and Humio Configuration.
To see more details, go through the individual 1.13.x release notes
(links in the changelog).
Changelog
- Major changes: 1.13.0
- Other changes: 1.13.1
- Other changes: 1.13.2
- Other changes: 1.13.3
- Other changes: 1.13.4
- Other changes: 1.13.5
- Improved handling of query restarts to avoid unnecessary restarts in some scenarios.
- Handling of digest in the case where a node has been offline for a long time has been improved. As an example, running a Humio cluster with a replication factor of 2 and having one node go offline for a long time would leave some ingested data to only reside on one Humio node (and on the ingest queue in Kafka). But this data would not be regarded as properly replicated until the second node returned. If the only node that was left handling a digest partition did a failover, Humio would end up going far back on the Kafka ingest queue to reread data. This has been changed. Now another node from the set of digest nodes will take over if a node goes offline, to keep the replication factor as desired. This means that other hosts, than those specified for a given digest partition on the cluster management page, can actually be handling the digest data for that partition. Only digest nodes will be selected as hosts.

1.12.0
Export to bucket, findTimestamp, selfjoin, Emergency user subsystem
Release Date: 2020-06-09
Minimum previous Humio version: 1.10.0
Requires data migrations: true
Has changes to configuration: true
This release promotes the 1.11 releases from preview to stable.
SelfJoin
selfJoin query function allows selecting log lines that share an identifier; for which there exists (separate) log lines that match a certain filtering criteria;
such as “all log lines with a given userid for which there exists a successful and an unsuccessful login”.
findTimestamp
findTimestamp query function will try to find and parse timestamps in incoming data. The function should be used in parsers and support automatic detection of timestamps. It can be used instead of making regular expressions specifying where to find the timestamp and parsing it with parseTimestamp. Checkout the documentation for details.
Export to bucket storage/S3
As an alternative to downloading streaming queries directly, Humio can now upload them to an S3 or GCS bucket from which the user can download the data. See docs
Emergency user subsystem
If there are issues with the identity provider that Humio is configured to use, it might not be possible to log in to Humio. To mitigate this, Humio now provides emergency users that can be created locally within the Humio cluster. See docs
Elastic Bulk API change - Fluent Bit users might need to change the Fluent Bit configuration
To ensure compatability with the newest Beats clients, the Elastic Bulk API has been changed to always return the full set of status information for all operations, as it is done in the official Elastic API.
This can however cause problems when using Fluent Bit to ingest data into Humio.
Fluent Bit in default configuration uses a small buffer (4KB) for responses from the Elastic Bulk API, which causes problems when enough operations are bulked together. The response will then be larger than the response buffer as it contains the status for each individual operation. Make sure the response buffer is large enough, otherwise Fluent Bit will stop shipping data. See: https://github.com/fluent/fluent-bit/issues/2156 and https://docs.fluentbit.io/manual/pipeline/outputs/elasticsearch

Bug fixes
Release Date: 2020-02-03
Minimum previous Humio version: 1.6.10
Requires data migrations: false
Has changes to configuration: true
This is a bug fix release.
Changelog
- New feature for ephemeral servers: Let Zookeeper assign the UUID that in turn assigns the node ID in the cluster. This is turned on by setting the config option
ZOOKEEPER_URL_FOR_NODE_UUID to the set of Zookeepers to use for this. The option ZOOKEEPER_PREFIX_FOR_NODE_UUID (default “/humio_autouuid_") sets the prefix to allow rack awareness. Note: Do not turn this on for an existing cluster. Do not turn on if running older 1.7.x or 1.8.x builds.
- Bug fix: Fix edge case errors in the regex engine. Some case insensitive searches for some Unicode characters were not supported correctly.
- Bug fix: Avoid calling fallocate on platforms that do not support this (for example, ZFS).

Bug fixes and LDAP improvements.
Changelog
- Username/email is treated case-insensitive in Humio. This is more expected behavior of usernames as emails addresses are often used. In some rare occasions duplicate accounts might have been created with difference in casing and this change can trigger the otherwise dormant account to be chosen when logging in the next time. If this happens, use the administrations page to delete the unwanted user account and let the user log in again.
- LDAP: It is now possible to specify an attribute within the LDAP record to use for the username rather than the default (an email address). This is only the case when using
ldap-search method by specifying the LDAP_USERNAME_ATTRIBUTE in the environment. Group names when using LDAP have historically been the distinguished name (DN) for that group, it is now possible to specify and attribute in the group record for the name by setting LDAP_GROUPNAME_ATTRIBUTE. These changes necessitated a breaking change in the ldap-search code path in cases where users of Humio authenticate with a username (e.g. user) rather than an email address (e.g. user@example.com). To elicit the same behavior as previous versions of Humio simply specify the LDAP_SEARCH_DOMAIN_NAME which in the past would default to the value of LDAP_DOMAIN_NAME but no longer does.
- Add
LDAP_USERNAME_ATTRIBUTE and LDAP_GROUPNAME_ATTRIBUTE configuration settings to enable more control over names carried from LDAP into Humio.
- Require setting
LDAP_SEARCH_DOMAIN_NAME explicitly when using ldap-search authentication method.
- Bugfix: Query sessions were not properly cleaned up after becoming unused. This lead to a leak causing high amount of chatter between nodes.

Bug fixes and a new background job that reduces number of small files on disk.
Changelog
- New background job: Find segments that are too small compared to the desired sizes (from current config) and merge them into larger files. For
COMPRESSION_TYPE=high this will recompress the inputs while combining them. This job runs by default and may be turned off by MERGE_UNDERSIZED_SEGMENTS_ENABLED=false.
- Detect when event ingested are more than
MAX_HOURS_SEGMENT_OPEN (24h by default) old and add the tag humioBackfill to them in that case to keep “old” events from getting mixed with current “live” events.
- Improved memory usage from having large global.
