## Breaking Changes & Deprecations

- Breaking changes This change impacts all instances that use external authentication providers to manage users and organization role assignments.
- The implementation for template macro `${__series.name}` was not always correct, resulting in an interpolation that was very different from the series name displayed in the visualization. We have now fixed this issue so that it does show the same name. Depending on how `${__series.name}` is used this could result in a minor breaking change.
