What's new with BroadSQL 5.2.4 (2026-09-13)

New features

  • command documentation now groups every command into one of 14 categories, including a reserved "Extension Commands" category for commands provided through BroadSQL's extension mechanism (currently empty - BroadSQL ships no extension commands today)
  • LOAD moved from Extension Commands to a new Data Import category, since it is a built-in BroadSQL command, not an extension
  • BATCHLOAD removed from current command documentation and CLI HELP as a deprecated compatibility adapter; LOAD is the documented way to import CSV data, BATCHLOAD keeps running unchanged for existing scripts
  • EDIT moved from Extension Commands to Running Queries, since it edits the last executed query
  • new Import guide documents LOAD's CSV import workflow, column matching, type conversion and transaction behavior, including migration guidance for BATCHLOAD users
  • the Export guide now also documents PULL (writing query results to H2, spreadsheets and flat files), replacing what was a separate PULL guide
  • the old /docs/pull.html User Guide URL now redirects to the Export guide instead of returning a broken link
