Turbot Guardrails Enterprise (TE) v5.55.0 - Materialization default has changed to Automatic
Dec 12, 2025•TE
What's new?
In this release, Guardrails changes the default for the Turbot > Materialization policy from Always to Automatic.
- Automatic (Default) — Create controls and policy values only if a setting is explicitly defined for the primary policy. This can significantly reduce noise and improve performance.
- Always — Guardrails creates controls and policy values for all applicable resources, even if no setting exists (legacy behavior).
To retain the existing behavior (legacy materialization), set the Turbot > Materialization policy to Always before upgrading to 5.55.0.
