https://github.com/simonw/datasette/releases/tag/1.0a2 | 86103928 | RE_kwDOBm6k_c4FIdd4 | 1.0a2 | main | 1.0a2 | 0 | 9599 | 1 | 2022-12-15T02:02:42Z | 2022-12-15T02:03:59Z | The third Datasette 1.0 alpha release adds upsert support to the JSON API, plus the ability to specify finely grained permissions when creating an API token. See [Datasette 1.0a2: Upserts and finely grained permissions](https://simonwillison.net/2022/Dec/15/datasette-1a2/) for an extended, annotated version of these release notes. - New `/db/table/-/upsert` API, [documented here](https://docs.datasette.io/en/latest/json_api.html#tableupsertview). upsert is an update-or-insert: existing rows will have specified keys updated, but if no row matches the incoming primary key a brand new row will be inserted instead. ([#1878](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1878)) - New [register_permissions(datasette)](https://docs.datasette.io/en/latest/plugin_hooks.html#plugin-register-permissions) plugin hook. Plugins can now register named permissions, which will then be listed in various interfaces that show available permissions. ([#1940](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1940)) - The `/db/-/create` API for [creating a table](https://docs.datasette.io/en/latest/json_api.html#tablecreateview) now accepts `"ignore": true` and `"replace": true` options when called with the `"rows"` property that creates a new table based on an example set of rows. This means the API can be called multiple times with different rows, setting rules for what should happen if a primary key collides with an existing row. ([#1927](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1927)) - Arbitrary permissions can now be configured at the instance, database and resource (table, SQL view or canned query) level in Datasette's [Metadata](https://docs.datasette.io/en/latest/metadata.html#metadata) JSON and YAML files. The new `"permissions"` key can be used to specify which actors should have which permissions. See [Other permissions in metadata](https://docs.datasette.io/en/latest/authentication.html#authentication-permissions-other) for details.
