We’re happy to announce the release of VUI 0.4.1, a patch version that addresses key schema issues and improves the reliability of backup handling — along with a few UI refinements and a new trial mode for VUI-Core.

This update is part of our ongoing effort to improve multi-cluster reliability and enhance the day-to-day experience for users working with Velero.

🆕 VUI-Core Trial Mode​

Starting with version 0.4.1, you can now test VUI-Core in demo mode for 14 days.
This allows you to evaluate centralized multi-cluster features without needing to activate a sponsor license immediately.

👉 Trial mode is enabled automatically when a valid license is not found.

ℹ️ Note: vui-core is the only component in the VUI ecosystem not distributed under the Apache 2.0 license.
It is released under a separate End User License Agreement (EULA).

🐛 API Fixes​

BackupRepository Schema Validation​

  • Fixed a validation issue where the generateName field in BackupRepository was expected but not provided.
  • This field is now marked as optional with a sensible default.

✅ Closes vui-ui#79

BackupResponse Schema Robustness​

Improved resilience when parsing Velero backup hook data:

  • Handles unexpected types in labelSelector (was dict, expected string)
  • Handles pre hook field when it's provided as a list instead of a string

These fixes prevent 400 errors and ensure the Backup Details page doesn't break even with malformed backup specs.

✅ Closes vui-ui#85
