This release adds passwordless Entra ID authentication, better Azure Firewall log parsing, a more polished live viewer experience, and a full Textual setup wizard.

Added

  • Entra ID (passwordless) authentication via DefaultAzureCredential, alongside the existing SAS connection string flow. Huge thanks to @kyjones03 for providing this.
  • Full Textual setup wizard replacing the old line-based prompts, with a grouped Welcome screen, confirmation dialogs, and a dedicated auth-method screen for choosing between Entra ID and SAS.
  • New Event Hub deployment improvements — the wizard can create Event Hub resources, configure Azure Firewall diagnostic settings, and for Entra ID flows attempt to assign the Azure Event Hubs Data Receiver role.
  • Auth-rule discovery — when SAS auth is picked, the wizard scans for a reusable Listen auth rule and only offers to create a new one, after explicit confirmation, if none exists.
  • AZFWFqdnResolveFailure parser — resolution failures are surfaced as AppRule rows with action ResolveFail, including the failed FQDN and error message.
  • Hide DNS toggle in the filter bar, enabled by default, to suppress noisy DnsQuery rows
  • Screenshot bindingCtrl+S saves an SVG snapshot of the current TUI view.
  • Visible-row counter in the status bar that activates whenever a filter is in effect; the Skipped counter is hidden when nothing was skipped.
  • Styled rule-info segments — Policy » RuleCollectionGroup » RuleCollection » Rule is rendered with progressively stronger styling for easier scanning.
  • New default theme and a distinctive color for DnsQuery rows.

Changed

  • Legacy AzureFirewallDnsProxy log records are now normalized to the DnsQuery category so users see a single display name regardless of diagnostic mode.
  • Viewer extracted into its own viewer/ package with dedicated modules for the app, configuration, streaming, and update checks.
  • Setup wizard restructured into a dedicated setup/ package with separate modules for screens, Azure operations, services, and utilities.
  • Ctrl+P is now reserved for Pause/Resume; the built-in command palette binding was removed so the shortcut also works while a filter input is focused.
  • Build and runtime dependency minimums were updated to the versions required by the new wizard, viewer, and Entra ID support.

Fixed

  • DNS proxy action values now correctly show the DNS response code, such as NOERROR or NXDOMAIN, instead of unrelated trailing query data.
  • Legacy parser data extraction was reworked for AzureFirewallNetworkRule, AzureFirewallApplicationRule, AzureFirewallNatRule, and AzureFirewallDnsProxy.
  • Status-bar visible_count is now reset when the log table is cleared, avoiding stale Events (filtered): N/0 output.
  • Screen stack handling is now correct when the streaming worker is cancelled or fails while the Update available dialog is shown above the connecting splash.
  • Streaming no longer leaks DefaultAzureCredential instances on exception paths.
  • AsyncioRequestsTransport is used for the Entra ID credential to avoid event-loop conflicts.
  • Resource Graph response parsing was fixed for the ARM permission check, and receive-permission matching now includes parent-scope role assignments.
  • Several UI regressions were fixed, including row sorting, table row handling, auto-scroll behavior, clear-filter behavior, header-row selection, and the update-check naming collision with Textual’s internal flush method.
