Summary

Apollo has released Rover 1.0, a major update to its command-line tool for managing Apollo Federation and GraphOS workflows such as publishing subgraphs, running schema checks, and composing supergraphs. The release introduces OAuth-based interactive authentication alongside improved API key and grant management, while replacing scattered environment-variable configuration with inspectable profiles for graphs and environments. Rover 1.0 also removes support for Apollo Federation 1, encouraging remaining users to migrate to Federation 2, and strengthens its plugin system through pinned versions, reproducible behavior, and transparent downloads. New native support for contract variant results in subgraph checks and publishing helps teams assess changes across consumer-specific graph views, while client operation checks have moved from the now-deprecated Apollo CLI into Rover. Because the version removes Federation 1 support and changes configuration practices, Apollo recommends reviewing its migration guide before upgrading, particularly for CI environments.
