Sept 22, 2026 — Spin aka v0.7.6 updates

We’re excited to announce the release of spin aka v0.7.6, the latest version of Akamai Functions’ plugin!

✨What’s New in spin aka v0.7.6

We've added multiple new features in the six releases since v0.7.0. The most impactful include:

  • More detailed deployment information: The spin aka app deploy command now gives more information about the application deployment process when your new version is going live on the Akamai Functions platform.
  • Added base support for WASIp3: The WebAssembly Systems Interface (WASI) allows your WebAssembly code to interact with the outside world through interfaces like wasi:http. We added base support for version 3 of the WASI spec, allowing us to support new features like reusable and stateful instances in the future. Other features like native async can be used on the platform today!
  • Added support for Spin v4: Akamai Functions now supports v4 of the Spin framework. Use the -E akamai-functions flag when you create a new spin app to make sure your projects are compatible with this deploy target.
  • Quality of life improvements: Updates to the arguments expected for several subcommands. For example, spin aka app unlink is easier to use and includes validation for cron commands. The cron feature remains in Tech Preview.
