Summary

The latest version of FusionAuth, version 1.35, has been released with several key improvements and new features, including support for HTTP requests in FusionAuth lambdas, which allows for complex integrations by allowing a lambda to retrieve data from external URLs. This feature is particularly useful for adding custom claims based on business logic specific to the user and application, calling IdP endpoints to retrieve additional data, or making arbitrary HTTP requests within a lambda. The release also includes internal upgrades to the GraalJS JavaScript execution engine, which provides long-term support for a more modern version of JavaScript and allows for HTTP requests. Additionally, there are several bug fixes and enhancements included in this release, including a fix for the Windows startup script and improvements to the passwordless flow.
