heroku/builder:22heroku/builder:24

Build environment visibility — We've added visibility for build environment settings associated with each deployment, and included a button for easy modification of those settings above the deploy logs
PostGIS is now available for our PostgreSQL databases
Many of you have asked for PostGIS support, and we're announcing that it's now available for PostgreSQL 13+ databases!
PostGIS is a spatial database extension for PostgreSQL, allowing you to store and query geographic information. With PostGIS, you can:
- Store and manage spatial data types like points, lines, and polygons
- Perform spatial queries to analyze and visualize your data
- Build location-aware applications and services
To enable PostGIS, simply create a new PostgreSQL 13+ database and make sure you tick the "PostGIS" option during the creation process.
Deploy hooks
We're excited to introduce Deploy hooks, making automated deployments even easier!
With Deploy hooks, you can now trigger deployments with a simple POST request to a unique URL, perfect for integrating with your workflow. This powerful feature enables:
- Seamless CI/CD integration: Connect your GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or other CI tools
- Automated deployments: Trigger updates when your content or data changes
- Custom workflow support: Build scripts that deploy your apps when needed
IP access controls for applications
We've just rolled out powerful new IP restriction capabilities for your app hosting environments:
- IP Allowlists: Create a trusted circle of approved IP addresses
- IP Denylists: Block specific troublesome IPs or ranges
Both features support individual addresses or CIDR notation for precise network control. Simply choose which approach works best for your security model (note: only one mode can be active at a time).
This highly-requested security enhancement gives you granular control over who can access your applications.
