Coveo Platform - What's New - Query pipeline relevance metrics

Query pipeline performance at a glance

We’re excited to announce that you can now view a seven-day snapshot of a query pipeline’s performance directly on the Query Pipelines page! The new Overview tab displays key relevance and performance metrics, such as the clickthrough rate, average click rank, and more. This feature makes it easier to monitor the impact of recent changes to your query pipeline, such as adding or modifying rules or updating ML model associations. Whether you’re tuning your pipeline for better engagement or troubleshooting relevance issues, these metrics provide guidance on how to manage your query pipeline effectively.

Take control of file type indexing

Selecting the items from your repository to include in your index—and deciding whether to index their content or just their metadata—is instrumental in reducing indexing time and delivering an optimal search experience. In the past, this involved editing a complex section of the source JSON configuration—a daunting task many users chose to avoid.

Not anymore.

Coveo has added an Items tab to many of its sources. Under this tab, you can now easily customize the source’s indexing behavior based on file type. Say goodbye to the guesswork.

The following sources now include the Items tab, along with the File types configuration section:

  • Amazon
  • S3
  • Confluence (Cloud & Data Center)
  • Database
  • File
  • Google Drive
  • Jira Software (Cloud & Data Center)
  • Khoros Community
  • SharePoint Online
  • Sitemap
  • Slack
  • Web
  • Zendesk

Please note that the Content and images section has been moved to the Items tab in all of these sources, as well as in the RSS source, which does not include the File types section.

Upcoming deprecation of Jive sources

Effective December 1, 2025, Coveo will deprecate the Jive Cloud and Jive Server sources. After this date, Jive sources will no longer work.

Until then, if you have any existing Jive sources, we ask that you review your indexing strategy to see if this content is still relevant to your search.

  • If the content is no longer relevant, delete your sources.

  • If the content is still relevant, please reach out to your Customer Success Manager (CSM) or email us so that we can come up with a plan to minimize disruption to your search experience.

What's new - Edit configuration with JSON panel improvements

“Edit configuration with JSON” panel improvements

We’re excited to announce new enhancements to the Edit configuration with JSON panel, designed to make configuring your source easier and faster than ever.

Two new tabs, File types and Parameters, have been introduced. Select either tab to instantly display two frequently used sections of the JSON configuration: documentConfig and parameters.

The JSON configuration box now features a smarter, more powerful search bar. Real-time keyword matching highlights results as you type, while intuitive navigation controls make it easy to move between them.

Refreshed query pipeline interface

We’ve made a few updates to the Query Pipelines page to simplify how you add and manage rules.

  • Clearer labels: The Overview tab has been renamed to Configuration to better reflect its purpose.
  • More specific buttons: When adding rules, you’ll now see labels like Add a trigger rule rather than Add rule, making it easier to know exactly what you’re creating.
  • Easier access to code-based rules: When a rule section is empty, the Add rule with code option is now a visible button, therefore you no longer need to look for it in the Action bar.

These changes aim to make your experience more intuitive and to reduce time spent navigating the interface.

Streamlined requests for sources & upgrades

Coveo is excited to introduce two new enhancements to the Add a source of content panel, making it easier than ever to request the sources you need.

  • Upgrade license: Need access to a source type that’s not included in your current license? Easily submit an upgrade request directly to the Coveo subscription management team.

No more searching for the right contact or the right process—these options put the request tools exactly where you need them.

Updated API key management system

We’re excited to announce a major revamp of our API key management system! The new interface lets you create API keys based on templates, which are predefined bundles of privileges that are suitable for common use cases. These templates have safeguards to prevent misconfigured keys, and they are designated as “can be public” or “must be private” to better identify which keys are appropriate for public use. The new system also includes features to assist with API key rotation and replacement.
