What's new in 2024.3

• 9021 - Unable to delete entities due to incorrectly related resources.

• 9018 - Fixed an issue where Kubernetes agents were not being health checked on the associated machine policy schedule
• 6902 - Azure App Service step times out after 100 seconds when uploading package

Breaking Changes

• 8918 - Breaking Change: We've modified the way Target Tags (previously known as Target Roles) work under the hood. Some Tags may now be visible to a wider audience than they were before. If you have custom roles that you expect to be able to see or manage Target Tags, you may also need to add new permissions to those roles
