 * Add support for visualisations of your data with graphs, with easily composable data structures using nodes and edges. ([tbd])
 * Improved dashboard UI panel controls for quicker access to common tasks such as downloading panel data. ([#2510](https://github.com/turbot/steampipe/issues/2510), [#2663](https://github.com/turbot/steampipe/issues/2663))
 
+## v0.17.1 [tbd]
+_Bug fixes_
+* Fix query command `--export` flag raising an error that it cannot be used in interactive mode, even when not in interactive mode. ([#2707](https://github.com/turbot/steampipe/issues/2707))
+* Fix RefreshConnections sometimes storing an unset plugin ModTime property in the connection state file. This leads to failure to refresh connections when plugin has been rebuilt or updated. ([#2721](https://github.com/turbot/steampipe/issues/2721))
+* Fix dashboard text inputs being editable in snapshot mode. ([#2717](https://github.com/turbot/steampipe/issues/2717))
+* Fix dashboard JSONB columns in CSV data downloads not serialising correctly. ([#2733](https://github.com/turbot/steampipe/issues/2733))
+* Add dashboard error modal when users are running a different UI and CLI version ([#2728](https://github.com/turbot/steampipe/issues/2728))
