Database Access gains Amazon Redshift support for secure, auditable connections without per-analyst IAM roles. Server Access improvements include custom PAM environment variables, trusted cluster identity claim propagation, and a cluster quick launcher. A breaking change alters tsh ssh -A default behavior, now forwarding the system SSH agent instead of the in-memory agent from ~/.tsh, with a flag available to restore prior behavior. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### What breaking change does Teleport 6.2 introduce for tsh ssh agent forwarding? Starting in Teleport 6.2, tsh ssh -A now forwards the system SSH agent available at $SSH_AUTH_SOCK by default, instead of creating an in-memory SSH agent from the ~/.tsh directory as prior versions did. Users who want to retain the old behavior can run tsh ssh with the -o "ForwardAgent local" option. Details are documented in RFD 22 and implemented in pull request #6525. _Teams upgrading Teleport track breaking changes like this agent forwarding shift on daily.dev._ ### Does Teleport support connecting to Amazon Redshift databases? Yes, Teleport 6.2 added Amazon Redshift support under Database Access, allowing secure short-lived connections to the data warehouse and auditing of queries run by data analysts. This removes the need to configure complicated IAM roles for each individual analyst, simplifying access management for Redshift clusters. _Engineers evaluating database access tools follow Redshift integration updates like this on daily.dev._ ### How does Teleport provide JWT authentication for Grafana? Teleport added native JWT support for Grafana through an accepted pull request, allowing Teleport to send JWT tokens to log users into Grafana. This integration only handles authentication and does not create new Grafana users automatically; the feature required Grafana 8.0 beta and configuration changes in grafana.ini, including auth.jwt settings like header_name and jwk_set_url. _Developers wiring up SSO across tools like Grafana track integration details like this on daily.dev._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Database, Kubernetes, and SSH access without passwords](https://daily.dev/posts/database-kubernetes-and-ssh-access-without-passwords-nqazd6vpp) · Tailscale · 0 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#aws](https://daily.dev/tags/aws), [#kubernetes](https://daily.dev/tags/kubernetes), [#authentication](https://daily.dev/tags/authentication) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/redshift-listing-databases-and-k8s-in-the-ui-lhzrnhxsc) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Redshift, Listing Databases, and K8S in the UI","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/redshift-listing-databases-and-k8s-in-the-ui-lhzrnhxsc","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/redshift-listing-databases-and-k8s-in-the-ui-lhzrnhxsc"},"datePublished":"2026-08-23T12:19:35.053Z","dateModified":"2026-08-23T12:34:34.907Z","description":"Teleport 6.2 adds pass-through header support for Application Access, native JWT support with Grafana 8.0 beta, and the ability to view connected Kubernetes...","image":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/s--58gMhC4P--/f_auto/v1722860399/public/Placeholder%2012","thumbnailUrl":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/s--58gMhC4P--/f_auto/v1722860399/public/Placeholder%2012","isAccessibleForFree":true,"articleSection":"Teleport","inLanguage":"en","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180}},"author":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Teleport","logo":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/s--Dw-Bbw6O--/c_limit,w_256/f_auto,q_auto/v1787487494/logos/teleport?_a=BAMAMicg0","url":"https://daily.dev/sources/teleport"},"commentCount":0,"discussionUrl":"https://daily.dev/posts/redshift-listing-databases-and-k8s-in-the-ui-lhzrnhxsc","interactionStatistic":[{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"LikeAction"},"userInteractionCount":0},{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"CommentAction"},"userInteractionCount":0}],"keywords":"aws,kubernetes,authentication","timeRequired":"PT4M"} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https://daily.dev"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Teleport","item":"https://daily.dev/sources/teleport"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"Redshift, Listing Databases, and K8S in the UI"}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"FAQPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/redshift-listing-databases-and-k8s-in-the-ui-lhzrnhxsc#faq","mainEntity":[{"@type":"Question","name":"What breaking change does Teleport 6.2 introduce for tsh ssh agent forwarding?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Starting in Teleport 6.2, tsh ssh -A now forwards the system SSH agent available at $SSH_AUTH_SOCK by default, instead of creating an in-memory SSH agent from the ~/.tsh directory as prior versions did.
