Upgrading: After installing this version, it is not possible to roll back to a version lower than 1.6.10. Be on version 1.6.10 before upgrading to this version.

UI: Word-wrap and event list orientation is now sticky in a session, meaning revisiting the search page will keep the previous selected options.

Function: New function callFunction, allows you to call a Humio function by name. This is useful if you for instance want a dashboard where you can control what statistics your widgets show based on a parameter, e.g. timechart(function=callFunction(?statistic, field=response_time))

Function: The function top has a new max=field argument, that can be used to make it work as a more efficient alias a groupby/sort combination, like top(field, max=value, limit=5) is equivalent (and much faster than) groupby(field, function=max(value)) | sort(limit=5).

Top Feature: Query quotas allowing limiting how many resources users can use when searching, see Query Quotas

UI: Allow disabling automatically searching when entering a repository search page, on a per-repo basis.

Config: Autosharding can now bet set "sticky" which means fixed as set by user on a specific (input) datasource. The API also allows listing all autosharding rules, both system-manages and sticky.

Config: Add SHARED_DASHBOARDS_ENABLED configuration setting which allows disabling access to the shared dashboards feature - if e.g. your organization has strict security policies.

Config: COMPRESSION_TYPE=high is now the default compression type. Clusters running with default configuration, will change to high compression unless the configuration COMPRESSION_TYPE=fast is set.
