### New docs

-   Added [Configure sampling](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/apm/distributed-tracing/distributed-trace-sampling/), covering APM agent sampler contexts, sampler types, and adaptive sampling targets.
-   Added [Sampler configuration examples](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/apm/distributed-tracing/sampler-configuration-examples/), a companion page with real-world, copy-paste-ready configurations for fixing uneven endpoint coverage and upstream-sampling imbalances.
-   Added [Permissions and roles](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/cci/configure-cci/cci-permissions/) for Cloud Cost Intelligence, covering default read-only access and how Organization Admins grant modify access through existing or dedicated custom roles.

### Major changes

-   Renamed and restructured OpenTelemetry database monitoring docs from "Database monitoring" to [Database 360 (DB360)](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/opentelemetry/db360/introduction/), and added CLI, Ansible, Chef, Helm, and Docker install-method pages for MSSQL, MySQL, Oracle, and PostgreSQL, including a new UiPath-related install flow under the MSSQL and MySQL sections.
-   Renamed [Errors inbox](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/triage-inbox/errors-inbox/) and its related pages to **Triage inbox**, and updated cross-references to the old errors-inbox paths across APM, browser, and mobile docs.
-   Restructured Node.js agent pages, including [Introduction to New Relic for Node.js](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/apm/agents/nodejs-agent/getting-started/introduction-new-relic-nodejs/), Heroku and Azure hosting, source maps, ES modules, Docker install, update, and troubleshooting, for clarity and consistency.
-   [Scheduled NRQL search and reporting](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/nrql/using-nrql/schedule-nrql-searches/) is now generally available. Updated the doc with permissions, scheduling, and management details, and linked it from [Use the Logs UI](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/logs/ui-data/use-logs-ui/).
-   [Intelligent Workloads](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/new-relic-solutions/new-relic-one/workloads/create-intelligent-workload/) is now generally available. Added bulk workload creation from recommendations and exclude filters to scope dependency graphs.
-   Refreshed the Summary page content and screenshots across [Standard Workloads](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/new-relic-solutions/new-relic-one/workloads/use-workloads/), Intelligent Workloads, and the Transaction 360 doc, including a new section on graduating a Transaction 360 view into an Intelligent Workload.
-   Updated [How New Relic distributed tracing works](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/distributed-tracing/concepts/how-new-relic-distributed-tracing-works/), the distributed tracing planning guide to reflect that mobile agents (Android v7.8.3+ and iOS v7.7.8+) now send only W3C trace context headers and no longer send the legacy proprietary `newrelic` header.

### Minor changes

-   Added a limitation note to [Compound alerts](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/alerts/create-alert/create-alert-condition/compound-alerts/compound-alerts/).
-   Added a `time_zone` query parameter to the [Public dashboards doc](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/query-your-data/explore-query-data/dashboards/share-dashboards-publicly/) for pinning a fixed IANA (Internet Assigned Numbers Authority) time zone identifier on public dashboard live URLs, so timestamps and relative time ranges display consistently regardless of the viewer's local browser time zone.
-   [Dashboard template variables](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/query-your-data/explore-query-data/dashboards/dashboard-template-variables/) now support `{{variable}}` placeholders in widget descriptions.
-   Added the `DBMonitoring` namespace to [Understand and manage data retention](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/data-apis/manage-data/manage-data-retention/).
-   Updated [CCI recommendations](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/cci/financial-intelligence/cci-recommendations/).

-   Expanded Kerberos capability guidance in [Private location capabilities](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/synthetics/synthetic-monitoring/guides/private-location-capabilities/) and [Kerberos (SPNEGO) authentication support for private locations](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/synthetics/synthetic-monitoring/private-locations/synthetics-kerberos-auth-support/).
-   Fixed a [.NET agent AppDomain caching troubleshooting](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/apm/agents/net-agent/troubleshooting/lock-contention-appdomain-getdata/) doc.
-   Updated Flutter and .NET MAUI crash-handling guidance in [Handled exceptions](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/mobile-monitoring/mobile-monitoring-ui/crashes/handled-exceptions-analyze-trends-prevent-crashes/), [Monitor your Flutter application](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/mobile-monitoring/new-relic-mobile-flutter/monitor-your-flutter-application/), and [Monitor your .NET MAUI application](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/mobile-monitoring/new-relic-mobile-maui-dotnet/monitor-your-net-maui-application/).
-   Refreshed [Node.js agent compatibility and requirements](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/apm/agents/nodejs-agent/getting-started/compatibility-requirements-nodejs-agent/) and [.NET agent compatibility and requirements](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/apm/agents/net-agent/getting-started/net-agent-compatibility-requirements/).
