# What's new 2026.7

This page lists key features and improvements released in version 2026.7 of the **Nexthink Infinity Standard edition** - August 17, 2026

Feature availability may differ between Nexthink Infinity and Nexthink Infinity for Government. For a complete overview, please refer to the [Infinity for Government Feature Exclusion List](/platform/security/infinity-for-government.md) and detailed release notes on the [Extended Documentation](https://edocs.nexthink.com/nexthink-infinity/infinity-release-notes) website.

## Workspace✦: Action execution from Assist

Let Assist run remote actions and workflows directly from a conversation. Instead of using an investigation, you can now ask Assist to take action directly, enabling end-to-end journeys from diagnosis to resolution. Before any action is executed, Workspace presents an impact assessment and requires your approval, while respecting the existing permissions for remote actions and workflows. Refer to the [Enabling Experimental mode](/platform/user-guide/search-and-workspace/using-workspace/enabling-experimental-mode.md) documentation for more information.

🔎 This feature is in beta and may change before its final release.

## Configurable OAuth token prefixes

Integrate more easily with third-party platforms that require custom OAuth token prefixes. You can now configure a custom token prefix for OAuth authentication, reducing integration complexity, eliminating the need for external workarounds, and expanding compatibility with enterprise VDI environments.

This feature requires configuration or setting user permissions before use. Please see the [Connector credentials](/platform/configuring_nexthink/bringing-data-into-your-nexthink-instance/integrating-nexthink-with-third-party-tools/outbound-connectors/connector-credentials.md#custom-header) documentation for more information.

Depending on your current licensing model, this capability may require an additional license. Contact your Nexthink representative for more information.

## Device View: Consistent device performance thresholds

Troubleshoot issues more consistently with aligned thresholds in Device View. Device performance metrics now use the same thresholds as Digital Experience scores for all supported metrics, regardless of whether they are enabled in your DEX score. Refer to the [Timeline](/platform/user-guide/device-view/timeline.md#device-performance) documentation for more information.

## Wi-Fi 6E/7 support and MAC address reporting

Gain visibility into modern wireless standards and the addresses that link devices to your network records. Connectivity data now includes the 6 GHz band and Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be), keeping Wi-Fi reports accurate as devices adopt these technologies. Nexthink also reports the MAC address of the primary physical network adapter, allowing correlation with access point records, switch port records, and network access control records. On Windows, you can also see whether the Wi-Fi MAC address is randomized and whether it rotates, explaining why a device may not match existing network records. This capability requires Collector version 26.7 or later. Refer to the [Timeline](/platform/user-guide/device-view/timeline.md) documentation for more information.

## Investigations: Expanded NQL grouping capabilities

Analyze data more efficiently by grouping results on integer and IP address fields in NQL. You can now summarize devices by the exact IP address they present, or group records by discrete integer values, such as HTTP error codes, making it easier to identify network patterns, investigate shared egress points, and generate reports without exporting data for additional processing. Refer to the [NQL summarize by](/platform/understanding-key-data-platform-concepts/nexthink-query-language-nql/nql-keywords/nql-summarize-by.md) documentation for more information.

## Remote Actions: User-aware execution

Run interactive remote actions only once the targeted user is logged in, so they always execute in the correct user context. When a remote action runs as an interactive user, the executing username is now consistently captured in the data model, reducing failed executions and giving you clear visibility into which user executed each action. Refer to the [Executing remote actions](/platform/user-guide/remote-actions/using-remote-actions/executing-remote-actions.md#parametrized-campaigns) documentation for more information.\

## Support access for external accounts

Strengthen the security of support access to your tenant. The Nexthink external support team, using @ext.nexthink.com accounts, can now authenticate through Nexthink corporate SSO instead of local accounts, providing a more secure way to grant support access. To use SSO authentication, support access accounts must use a unique username and cannot share it with an existing local account.

This feature requires configuration or setting user permissions before use. Please see the [Accounts](/platform/user-guide/administration/account-management/accounts.md#setting-support-access-data-and-roles) documentation for more information.

{% hint style="info" %}
