Important
We recommend updating to the latest agent version as soon as it's available. If you can't upgrade to the latest version, update your agents to a version no more than 90 days old. Read more about keeping agents up to date.
See the New Relic Ruby agent EOL policy for information about agent releases and support dates.
v9.7.1
Version 9.7.1 fixes a ViewComponent instrumentation bug and enforces maximum size limits for custom event attributes.
Bugfix: Stop suppressing ViewComponent errors
Previously, the agent suppressed ViewComponent render errors. The agent now reports these errors and allows them to raise. Thank you @mjacobus for reporting this bug and providing a fix! PR#2410
Bugfix: Enforce maximum size limits for custom event attributes
Previously, the agent would allow custom event attributes to be any size. This would lead to the New Relic backend dropping attributes larger than the maximum size. Now, the agent will truncate custom event attribute values to 4095 characters, attribute names to 255 characters, and the total count of attributes to 64. PR#2401
