ShowScript 1.0.35 is available right now, and it’s a big step forward for anyone building interactive, networked, or control-heavy show systems.
This release isn’t just “more fixes” (though you’ll get those too), it introduces a set of foundational building blocks that make ShowScript deployments cleaner, safer and easier to integrate with other tools.
What’s new in ShowScript 1.0.35
API authentication (user + role based)
The API now supports authentication with users and roles, making it practical to expose endpoints without turning your whole system into an open door. You can define users, assign roles and control exactly who can do what, from retrieving variables to evaluating code.
OpenAPI spec + online API browser
To complement the new security model, the API also gains a generated OpenAPI spec and a built-in online browser. That means faster onboarding, easier debugging, and a smoother workflow for anyone integrating ShowScript with external systems.
Panels are now a dedicated driver (better separation + security)
Web Panels have been separated from the API driver and moved into dedicated Panels drivers. This is an important architectural change: panels and API concerns no longer live in the same place, which improves modularity and enables enhanced security by design.
VCA Channels
ShowScript 1.0.35 introduces VCA Channels, adding another key primitive for show control workflows and signal routing. If your projects depend on scalable channel-based control concepts, this is one major feature to pay attention to. Read more..
Bug fixes
And of course, the release includes various small bug fixes that polish the overall experience and improve stability.
