[!CAUTION]
This version of Snipe-IT REQUIRES PHP 8.2.0 or greater, 8.4+ recommended. PHP 8.2 is still in security release support until 31 Dec 2026, but let's not play that game

We're SO stoked to release v8.5 of Snipe-IT for so many reasons!

Tons of bug fixes, and also - we now support PHP 8.5! We're also now on Laravel 12, which won't matter to most folks, but means we can start to move forward on some really cool stuff that the framework limitation kept us from doing.

As always, the nitty gritty is in the What's Changed below - but very importantly, this release addresses several security issues, so we strongly encourage everyone to update as soon as is feasible.

BUT FIRST - The Snipe-IT Mobile App

Everyone wants to know about the mobile app. We're freakishly close to a beta release. So much progress has been made already, the suspense is killing us. We were hoping to time this release with more specific news about the mobile app, but this release means that when the mobile app does launch, it will be a much better experience. Watch this space - it's happening soon.

Complex Advanced Search Queries

We've heard from so many people about how the "advanced" search wasn't so... advanced.

Previously, the advanced search (the icon with the + sign in it) was... okay. We've supercharged it in this release to allow and vs or, and also some pretty cool add-ons to be able to filter in a much more nuanced way.

Screenshot 2026-05-12 at 7 57 19 PM

Advanced searches return a partial match by default. For more specific results, you can use not:value to fuzzy-exclude, is:value for an exact match, is_not:value for an exact exclusion, is:null for empty values, and is:not_null for non-empty. (In these examples, value is the text you are searching for - or seeking to exclude.)

This is all API-powered, so if you're using the API in a more complicated way, you automatically have all of this new operator and filter functionality. (We're a little behind on the docs, but we'll have that updated soon, I swear.)

Small usability issue - hitting enter (or return) on that advanced search modal will now submit the form.

Let's Talk About SCIM, Baby

SCIM now officially supports groups, location, company, and manager syncing. Because of how SCIM works, this won't happen automagically, you'll need to map those fields in your directory service provider, and we'll have updated docs for that shortly.

This is a shockingly short blurb about stuff that took a really long time, but for the folks who cared about this in the first place, it's a big deal.

[!CAUTION]
If you have internal groups that are named the same as Snipe-IT permission groups, you could accidentally overwrite permission groups in Snipe-IT. Use this carefully, and definitely make a backup first.

Bulk Delete Licenses

While this shouldn't come up too often, imports do go bad and providers change sometimes. If you have a bunch of licenses that have no seats assigned, you can now delete them in bulk.

Re-Send Asset Acceptance from the user view

You can now re-send the unaccepted item notice from a user's page (if they have outstanding items that have not been signed for or the EULAs were not yet accepted.)

Sign in Place

SO many people have asked for this, and we're so jazzed to be able to release it. If your workflow requires a user to sign in place - as in they are literally standing there - you can do that now. It will still direct you to your intended destination after the user accepts what's been assigned, but you can now do that in-place, in-person.

Screenshot 2026-04-14 at 9 23 22 PM

That checkbox will remember your previous choice, so for folks who really wanted this to streamline their workflow, this should help a lot. (Admittedly not our best work in terms of test data screenshots.)

Report Dashboard

Reports have always been a weird outlier in terms of information architecture here. We've made some big improvements in that department, so anyone with reports permission will now see this:

Screen.Recording.2026-05-11.at.2.24.58.PM.mov
Custom Asset Report

You can now use "only assigned" or "only unassigned" in the custom asset report.

AI Stuff

While it's not in this release, we are working on a built-in MCP server, so if AI is your thing, stay tuned.

v8.4.1

Compare Source

[!CAUTION]
This version of Snipe-IT REQUIRES PHP 8.2.0 or greater, 8.3+ recommended.

Happy Tuesday! This release introduces an updated UI, improved searching, and fixes several security issues. All users are encouraged to upgrade.

A lot of what we've been working on has been under the hood - code improvements to make it easier for us to more quickly and reliably act on things you folks have been asking for. They don't look like a lot on the face, but they're important to get the project to a state where we can move a bit faster.

As such, you will definitely want to run php artisan view:clear to clear your old cached views. If you're using the upgrade.php script, it will do that for you, so no need to worry about it.

UI Changes

As you'll notice, we did switch up the UI on detail pages a bit. We've introduced a new component that we're calling the "info panel".

Screen.Recording.2026-03-20.at.5.42.43.PM.mov

It might be a little confusing to start with, but we think you're really going to like it. For all "first class objects", all of the most common information will now be available consistently, in the same place, every time.

The new info panel includes copy-to-clipboard functionality for just about everything, and if you don't need that information and want to work with the wider table view, just click on the arrow button to hide it. The show/hide is stored in local storage, so it will remember whether you wanted it open or not as you navigate through the system. The hover tooltips will give you more information when it's available or necessary.

We've tried to listen to feedback about the most important elements that people care about when they are viewing an item's detail page and give those priority. We know change is hard though, so keep that feedback coming. We can't promise we can act on every piece of feedback we get, but we listen to all of it and ultimately are committed to making your experience with the product as good as it can be.

At the end of the day, any time you change the UI on anything, people will have Big Feelings. Some of the feedback we've gotten so far is really positive, some less so - but we're always listening, even if you fall on the "less so" side of things.

We've also introduced some mobile navigation improvements, turning the tabbed interface into a dropdown on very small screens.

Uploads for Departments and Companies

You can now add files to departments and companies, if that's the sort of thing you're into.

A quick mea culpa to our hosted customers

In the process of migrating some of you to newer, faster machines, some of you were upgraded a little earlier than we had planned, while things weren't quite polished up. Many of you have reached out via the helpdesk and we've gotten you sorted, but we're sorry that happened. We would have at least wanted to give you a heads up about the UI changes.

We always want the hosted experience to be the most excellent way to use Snipe-IT, and this past week was a little rockier for some of you. We're taking steps to make sure that doesn't happen again when we need to migrate customers from one server to another.

What's Next

We have an upgrade to Laravel 12 sitting on develop which will fully support PHP 8.5, and very shortly after that, group support for SCIM.

Potentially Breaking Changes

The filters for asset status type, (Pending, RTD, Archived, Deleted, etc) have been changed from status=Archived to status_type=Archived.

Documentation Platform Bugs

Our current documentation platform is having some issues and some pages might not be available. After many hours talking to their support (and their stupid AI chatbot), we're going to have to revert some of the formatting on many of the pages to get them to render. How did this happen? No idea. We didn't change anything. But we need to get those pages back online for you and new folks who want to install Snipe-IT. If you get an error in the docs saying that the page cannot be rendered, just open a GH issue and we'll jump right on that. We have a lot of docs to get through, and we're starting with the most common pages first.

Mobile App Update

We've created a Google Form so we can start tracking people who want in on the Testflight invite. Please fill in this form if you're interested in helping us test! https://forms.gle/HEsWuHSqLLjx8xnR8.

v8.4.0

Compare Source

Happy Monday! Today we're releasing 8.4.0 of Snipe-IT! In it you'll find tons of small bug fixes and some bigger ones.

As always, we highly recommend upgrading to the latest stable version of Snipe-IT, as we are constantly improving the product and patching security issues we come across.

Smallish:
  • Several small security fixes
  • Loads of fixes to light/dark mode
  • Some label scaling fixes
  • Less noisy SCIM debugging when it's not actually helpful
  • Ability to clone components
  • Fixed a few breadcrumb titles
Biggish?
  • We identified a few queries that were not optimized as well as they could be, so it was creating an "n+1" problem. The more items you had, the more queries you'd be doing. We've fixed those and things should be a LOT snappier now.
  • We've added sticky columns to most of the table views. We have tried really hard to make them be the ones that make sense (name, as the left-side sticky, and actions and/or checkin/checkin where appropriate). I expect you'll let us know if we guessed wrong here.
  • A more standardized right-side panel in most screens (not users and not assets or "Your Profile" yet). We're really quite excited about this, as we feel it exposes a lot more of the potentially important information you need to see while looking at an item than we we used to. A few fewer clicks, and a lot more information exposed, but also able to be tucked away if you need larger screen real-estate.
