Upgrade notes
Platform releases allow us to incorporate multiple significant changes (often called “breaking changes”) that aren't compatible with previous versions. These changes establish a strong foundation for more extensive development in future releases.
To increase security and performance, we’ve made changes in our core architecture that require apps to bundle their libraries. We're collaborating with our marketplace partners on these changes, however, some apps may not be immediately compatible with the new platform upon release.
We recommend that you review your apps before upgrading to avoid service disruptions for your organization.
To check app compatibility, visit Checking app compatibility with application updates, or the Atlassian Marketplace to see if your app hosting is compatible with your product version.
Here’s some important information you should know about before upgrading.
Enabling GitHub integration
Bamboo 10.0 improves GitHub integration through direct build status updates and shared credentials for repository management.
To enable these features, update your GitHub tokens to include the admin:repo_hook scope. This will allow Bamboo to exchange build statuses with GitHub.

AWS IMDSv2 support for Elastic Agents
To protect against unauthorized data access, Bamboo 10.0 includes support for AWS Instance Metadata Service Version 2 (IMDSv2). This change enhances the security of Elastic Agents on EC2 by using a session-based approach to access instance metadata. The Ubuntu image is based on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, and the Windows image is based on Windows Server 2022.
IMDSv2 is supported for both stock and customized images. Since AWS has disabled IMDSv1 on their stock Ubuntu 24.04 image, we've also disabled IMDSv1 on our stock Ubuntu and Windows images starting with Bamboo 10.0. To enable IMDSv1, you'll need to create a customized image based on the stock image and enable IMDSv1. We recommend customization for all users, as stock images don't guarantee backward compatibility.

Configuring the allowlist
With Bamboo 10.0, administrators can now manage outgoing connections by adding URLs to an allowlist, enhancing security and testing connections for the following repositories:
Git
GitHub
Bitbucket Cloud
Bitbucket Data Center
Application links are automatically included, and SSH connections require specific regular expressions. Due to security risks, we don’t recommend disabling the allowlist. Explore how to configure the allowlist
When connecting to Bitbucket Data Center, Bamboo adds an SSH entry with the default port 7999. If you're using a custom SSH port, then manually modify the entry.
New login URI
Bamboo 10.0 introduces a new login URI. While an HTTP redirection rule is in place to handle this change, automated scripts might not process HTTP 301/302 responses correctly. We recommend updating any scripts interfacing with the login URI to point from <BambooURL>/userlogin!doDefault.action to <BambooURL>/userlogin.action.
Additionally, Bamboo Docker images may be affected by this URI change. If you're using customized Docker images, recreate them using the latest Bamboo 10.0 Docker image for compatibility.
Deprecating support for CodeDeploy task
Support for the AWS CodeDeploy task has been deprecated and will be completely removed in future releases.
