On behalf of Broadcom, we appreciate your business and the opportunity to provide you with high-quality, innovative software and services. As part of our ongoing commitment to customer success, we regularly release updated versions of our products.
Today, we are excited to announce the general availability of Rally Anywhere 1.7, released on August 13th, 2026. This release introduces a suite of powerful new features and enhancements designed to improve visibility, deliver predictive project insights, enhance security and governance, and optimize team and portfolio workflows.
Custom Views and Widgets: Drive Informed Decisions with Deeper Insights
Leverage powerful new visualization and customization capabilities across your custom views and dashboards.
- Query Counter Widget: Author formatted content (rich text) with embedded live query counts and context variables using simple substitution syntax. Includes interactive drilldown capabilities to inspect underlying artifact lists directly.
- Print Cards from Custom List Widget: Easily generate and print physical story and task cards directly from a Custom List widget for physical Scrum or Kanban board management.
- Project Substitutions for Custom Views: Pull dynamic Project scope attributes (ObjectID, _ref, Name) into rich text content or individual widget queries automatically.
- Color Options for Charts: Define custom palette colors and display ordering for Bar/Column Chart and Pie Chart widgets via a new Color Options configuration tab.
- Saved Views Conversion: Enhanced conversion utilities now automatically convert saved views on legacy custom pages when transitioning Custom Boards and Custom Lists to Custom Views.
Milestone Delivery Confidence & Tracking
- Milestone Delivery Confidence Page & Widget: Leverage Monte Carlo simulations analyzing current progress against historical delivery patterns to assess target date feasibility and identify work items at risk.
Capacity Plan Alignment Enhancements
- Align capacity plans directly against custom fields of the portfolio item within the Alignment tab.
Administration, Governance, & Security Updates
- API Key & OAuth Permission Enhancements: Subscription administrators can now limit API Key and OAuth Client creation to specific lists of allowed users, alongside batch-deletion and filtering capabilities on the management pages.
- OAuth Client Token Lifecycle Enhancement: Updated authentication lifecycle management for OAuth client tokens, ensuring improved alignment with enterprise security standards.
- X-Request-Host HTTP Header Validation: Prevents host-header-injection vulnerabilities by validating host headers against a configurable allowlist (ALM_REQUEST_HOST_ALLOWLIST).
Important: Deployment Notes & Breaking Changes
- License File Format Change: Rally Anywhere 1.7 introduces a new license format. Customers must request a new license by submitting a support case with the case type of “Global Customer Assistance”. The new license must be uploaded post-upgrade to prevent login failure. Refer to the Rally Anywhere 1.7 release notes.
- Several other administrative configuration changes introduced as part upgrading to Rally Anywhere 1.7.
