Seqera Platform Enterprise version 26.1 introduces Co-Scientist for Enterprise, broader cloud credential support (AWS role-based access, Azure Entra service principal, GCP Workload Identity Federation), Nextflow data lineage in pipeline runs and Data Explorer, and a redesigned audit log experience with CSV export.

Highlights​

• Co-Scientist is now available for Enterprise deployments.
• Pipelines now support a GitHub App manifest flow for credential creation, with higher throughput than personal access tokens (PATs).
• Compute environments support descriptions and can be disabled, and Google Batch and Azure Batch have significant stability and scalability improvements.
• AWS, Azure, and GCP each gain deeper credential and identity management, including Workload Identity Federation (WIF) for Google Cloud Batch and Entra service principal support for Azure Batch.
• Nextflow data lineage is configurable and attached to pipeline runs and Data Explorer objects.
• Existing Studios can be edited, and new workspace settings for custom container registry controls and default collaboration modes provide top-down granular management.
• Datasets now support linked (URL-referenced) remotely-hosted data.
• Data Explorer adds IGV and Molstar 3D viewer for genomic and structural files, respectively.
• Audit logs have a new user interface with on-demand CSV export, configurable maximum records, and richer event context. The Admin panel exposes real-time usage metrics.
