Bluestone PIM Release 79-2
September 22, 2026 - Highlights

⚠️ Endpoints to be terminated - action required ⚠️
- Content store: Expanded filter options
Finding products in the Content store is now easier with two new filtering capabilities:- Product Types: Now available as a standard filter option out of the box.
- Text attribute filters: Tailor search to your catalog by making key text attributes searchable filter options (exact match only). To configure the specific attributes for your account, please reach out to our support team.

- PPE: Multi-category access
Administrators can now grant PPE users access to multiple catalogs and categories at once, removing the previous single-selection restriction.
- New! Digital Product Passport (DPP) plugin
ℹ️ Currently available in the Test environment ℹ️
Managing DPP compliance just got easier! Our new Digital Product Passport plugin brings passport requirements for your products directly into Bluestone PIM - right where your product data already lives.
✅ Map DPP fields to your existing PIM attributes.
✅ Track completion at a glance from a dedicated product tab.
✅ Edit values inline - no duplicate data, no extra systems.
Interested in trying it out? Reach out to our support team to learn more. - Access management: System monitor permisson
Administrators can now explicitly grant users permission to view System Monitor entries.
- Introducing Product Families: A three-level product hierarchy
The new Family product type is now available in Production, allowing you to organize products into a three-level hierarchy.
Managing complex product lines just got a whole lot easier! Bluestone PIM now supports a three-level hierarchy - Family → Group → Variant - giving you a powerful new top-level container for organising multiple Groups, managing data at a higher level, and inheriting it down through the hierarchy.Important: To protect existing data structures, workflows, and integrations, this is an opt-in feature and is disabled by default. Please ensure your organization has completed all required technical and operational adjustments on your side before requesting activation.
Once your team is ready, please reach out to our support team to have Product Families enabled for your organization.
Perfect for fashion, electronics, and any catalogue with multiple layers of variation. And if you don't need it, no worries - your existing setup is completely unaffected.-png.png?width=670&height=710&name=Product%20Hierarchy%20Diagram-selection%20(3)-png.png)

Improvements
- PPE: Smarter screen space utilization in product tables
The Variants and Linked products tables now dynamically scale to fill available screen space. Columns expand automatically to prevent text truncation, making products easier to identify at a glance without hovering over cells.
- PPE: Instant auto-apply filtering
Finding products is now faster and more intuitive. Specifying a filter updates the grid immediately - eliminating the need for the "Apply filters" and "Clear" buttons:
- Relations: Flexible conversions
Managing your data structure is now more flexible. You can now easily switch a relation from two-way to one-way without disrupting your existing configuration or losing references. - Sync: Improved observability with aligned IDs
Troubleshooting sync operations is now seamless across both the UI and API, allowing you to easily cross-reference data regardless of where your investigation begins:
- View the PAPI session ID directly in the System monitor UI.
- Access the Sync session ID inside
getpublishinfosAPI responses.

Fixes
- Fixed: Create relation API error for restricted users
Resolved an issue where restricted users encountered a an error when using the 'create relation' API. Permission handling for restricted users has been corrected. - Fixed: Dashboard product and asset count widgets
Resolved an issue where product and asset dashboard widgets displayed higher counts than the actual list pages due to filter parsing and navigation timing errors. - Fixed: Product status filtering
Resolved a timing issue that could cause search results to fall out of sync when updating products. Filtering by Published or Draft status now consistently returns accurate results.
