On first view, a clip is submitted to the Go Secure verifier, which replays the signed hash chain embedded in the video bitstream and returns a verdict; the result is cached against the clip so subsequent views are instant. Verified clips carry a **Go Secure badge** on the plate group page, which explains what the badge does and does not assert. Where verification fails, the video scrubber shows **per-chain tamper localization** — the affected \~100-frame region is marked on the timeline rather than the whole clip being condemned. A **chain-of-custody export** endpoint produces the evidentiary record for a clip, suitable for disclosure. **Alerts & Outcomes** Agencies can now record what actually happened after an alert, and report on it. An outcome (disposition) can be recorded from the alert detail page or in bulk from the alert list, with a full edit history showing who changed what and when. Administrators define their own **disposition categories** per company, subject to a cap counted against active categories only. The **Outcomes dashboard** charts outcome volume over time and breaks it down by category, and an **Alerts & Outcomes table** gives the underlying rows with **CSV export** for reporting outside Scout. **Axis agent licensing and entitlement** Axis cameras are now licensed and counted like any other agent. The licensing server holds a per-company Axis entitlement with a camera cap and an expiration; Scout Web writes the entitlement on subscription changes, pre-checks it, and registers Axis cameras as cloudprocessor agents so they appear in the platform's agent inventory. The **Licensed Agents** page shows Axis rows alongside a license summary. **Axis surcharge purchasing** New and existing commercial customers can add Axis support from checkout or the plan page at the advertised $83 flat rate, which replaces the $65 per-stream rate rather than summing with it. Existing customers ramp at their next renewal. ### Bug Fixes **Adding Axis at checkout no longer opens two racing sessions** A double-click on Add-Axis could open two checkouts. Checkout is now idempotent. **Video player recovers from decoder errors** `/playvideo` now wires its media-error handler correctly, so a browser that fails to decode a clip falls back instead of leaving a dead player. **Plate reads from uploaded video get correct records** Some plate reads generated from uploaded video produced malformed records. **Dark mode and layout fixes** Outcome buttons no longer overflow their info panel on narrow viewports, the detail-modal spinner clears when the image loads, outcome chart colors stay consistent, the overlapping outcome-volume chart tooltip is fixed, dashboard tiles were fixed, alert table column widths were corrected, plate reads are visually differentiated, vehicle description formatting was standardized, and the dispatch plate-search input stays visible when cleared. **Axis agent cameras appear on the dispatch map** They were missing. **Webhooks page fixes** The camera dropdown no longer expands past its container, and webhook cards no longer appear spuriously focused. **Miscellaneous** Configuration → Alerts navigation, the 472 area-code phone validation, duplicate group UUID ordering, plates without group rows, alert-list retention validation for tenants with extended retention are all fixed. ## Scout Web v1.16.3 - 1/29/26 ### Enhanced Alerting Across the Application * Alerts are now available from anywhere in Scout, not just the Dispatch Map, so high-priority activity stays visible while users work in other areas. * Added in-app alert popups when Scout is in focus, and browser push notifications when Scout is open but not in focus (subject to browser/OS notification settings). * New Alert Notification settings let users choose which alert lists they want notifications for (including Enable All / Disable All) * Clicking an alert notification routes users to the Dispatch Map with the relevant alert context for quicker follow-up. * Improved alert notification details to include key context (e.g., site and alert list name) so users don’t have to click through just to identify the alert. * Improved permission enforcement so users only receive alerts when they have access to both\ the alert list, and the camera that captured the plate. * Alert list access changes now reflect in the notification configuration UI (e.g., lists become disabled/visually indicated when access is removed or the list is deleted). * Microsoft Edge reliability improvements for push notifications. NOTE: Alert push notifications are being rolled out via feature flag and may be enabled per company. ### Audit Export Validation * Audit Search and Audit Export now prevent selecting future date ranges. * If an invalid time range is entered, Scout shows clear validation feedback identifying whether the start or end time is invalid. * Audit Search no longer reloads after a validation error, preventing users from losing entered criteria. ## Scout Web v1.16.2 - 1/9/2026 Added hotfix to address an issue exporting large audit datasets. ## Scout Web v1.16.1 - 12/10/2025 This hotfix release addresses a critical password update issue and also includes a fix for the dispatch map that caused it to become unresponsive. ## Scout Web v1.16.0 - 11/26/2025 This release delivers multiple enhancements across audit exports, search justification fields, federated search usability, and security posture. ### Audit Record Export Enhancements * Added export capability that supports all audit event types in a single download. * Added option to include all audit records regardless of user or email. * Added filtering based on users or email addresses tied to one or more permission groups. At query time, email addresses are resolved from the selected groups and matched against both the email and user fields in the audit records. * Added optional ability to export only selected event types when needed. ### Enhanced Plate Search Justification Fields * Retained the existing Justification field for documenting the reason or purpose of a plate search. * Added a new dedicated Case Number field to correctly capture case numbers separate from justification text. * Clarified earlier confusion caused by the placeholder showing a case number example in the original justification field. * Added a justification field to the Blue API so Blue users can submit searches with justification included. ### Federated Search Improvements * The shared instance list is now alphabetically sorted for a cleaner and more predictable search experience. ### Security and Pen Test Remediation * Applied multiple fixes based on recent security testing to improve hardening and overall system resilience. ## Scout Web v1.15.3 - 10/14/2025 (Patch) * Fixed an issue that prevented PDF exports from being delivered when using the “Export to Email” option on the plate results and reports pages. Users previously saw “Reporting scheduled,” but no email was received. Exports now send successfully. ## Scout Web v1.15.2 - 9/30/2025 * Added support for international numbers, specifically addressing UK and Australia requirements where in-region numbers are needed for SMS delivery. * Enhanced audit logging for federated searches to correctly capture and log the user performing the cross-tenant search. * Introduced improvements to strengthen overall account protection and user authentication, including updates to password requirements, login safeguards, and recovery processes. * The vehicle search by image feature is currently unavailable while we work on upgrading our models to deliver more accurate results. This is a temporary change, and the feature will return improved in a future release. * Comprehensive branding customization for Plate Ranger customers, including login page, system-generated emails, reports, and more. ### Websocket Server Release Integration * Integrates with the timing functionality added in Websocket Server release [/pages/eaZTFQDoYx1adUoaVbNF#id-1.5.3-5-28-25](https://docs.rekor.ai/scout/pages/eaZTFQDoYx1adUoaVbNF#id-1.5.3-5-28-25 "mention"), adds timing for the "last leg" of media transfer, and provides a consolidated timing report of all legs to Rekor engineers for diagnostic purposes. ### Outbound Webhook Flexibility * Added an option to configure the scope of vehicle-only reads pushed to webhooks, to include either: * (a) Only reads where the plate was determined to be missing/removed. * (b) Both reads of the type above plus those where the plate was present but unrecognizable. Cloud tenants on police.openalpr.com and cloud.openalpr.com will default to (a) (existing behavior) but can be switched to (b), upon request. ### Fixes & Improvements * Fixed an issue preventing users from enabling or disabling multi-factor authentication (MFA). * Revised alert list caching logic to prevent intermittent plate processing delays. * Various UI and performance improvements across the application, with special attention to mobile browsing. ## Scout Web v1.13.0 - 1/31/25 ### Enhancements * **Unified Look-and-Feel:** Updated UI with consistent styling across **Scout** and new micro-UI components for a more cohesive user experience. * **Revamped Search Module:** Introduced an improved search experience with better performance and usability (*not currently available in production).* ### Fixes & Improvements * **Bug Fixes:** Various under-the-hood fixes to improve stability and reliability. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters: ``` GET https://docs.rekor.ai/scout/scout-r-web-release-notes.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
