New Support Policy and Deprecation of Certain IDE Features
Dear customers,
We want to inform you of upcoming changes which may impact your development workflows.
Starting June 24, 2025, Snyk will implement an official 12-month Support Policy for our IDE, Language Server, and CLI versions. Additionally, we are announcing the deprecation of certain IDE features, detailed herein: Code Quality Findings in Snyk Code (both WebUI and IDE Plugins), Javascript CDN Library Detection in HTML Files, and Container Image Detection in Kubernetes YAML Files.
12-month Support Policy
Establishing an official 12-month Support Policy for IDE, Language Service, and CLI will enable us to provide a more consistent experience throughout the feature lifecycle, enabling customers to adopt new innovative features sooner and providing more clarity to customers about what they can expect in terms of supportability.
What this means: Each version of our IDE plugins, CLI, and Language Server will be supported for 12 months from its release date. Clear support timelines allow you to plan upgrades confidently, reducing unexpected disruptions.
To continue receiving support and access to the latest features, please upgrade your IDE plugin, Language Server, and CLI to a version released within the last 12 months by June 24, 2025. We encourage you to schedule regular updates to stay within our support window.
For guidance on upgrading, please refer to our Documentation for IDE, Language Server, and CLI, respectively. If you need assistance, please contact our support team.
IDE plugin feature deprecations effective June 24, 2025
Snyk previously supported a basic set of code quality features that only appeared in the IDE experience and some experimental security features found only in singular IDE platforms. This functionality was used only by a small number of customers, and the feedback we received from most customers was that this feature set needed to be revised to meet their needs and obscured relevant findings. After careful consideration, we have decided that removing this functionality is the best outcome for all of our customers.
Deprecation of Code Quality Findings in Snyk Code (WebUI and IDE Plugins) Snyk Code Quality findings will no longer be provided in versions of the IDE plugins. Earlier plugin versions may still show the Code Quality findings section but the results will be empty. Affected integrations: Web UI, all Snyk IDE Plugins
Deprecation of JavaScript CDN Library Detecting in HTML Files This feature surfaced security vulnerabilities in JavaScript packages from well-known CDNs (Content Delivery Networks) within HTML files in your projects. Affected integrations: Visual Studio Code and Language Server
Deprecation of Container Image Detection in Kubernetes YAML Files This was an experimental feature available in the the Snyk JetBrains IDE that scans Kubernetes configuration files and searches for container images . Affected integrations: Snyk JetBrains IDE Integration
We value your partnership and are committed to supporting your success. If you have any questions or need assistance, we’re here to help.
Thank you for your continued support.
Best regards,
