CoE Starter Kit August 2023

IMPORTANT: DEPRECATION OF AUDIT LOG SOLUTION

The August release fully deprecates the custom connector logic for fetching audit logs in favour of the new HTTP logic. The Center of Excellence - Audit Logs solution is now deprecated, and the custom connector has been removed from the Center of Excellence - Core Components solution.

To migrate from using the custom connector to using the HTTP action, see:
#6009

To maintain the custom connector, see
#6017

If you attempted to upgrade to the new Center of Excellence - Core Components solution but still have the Center of Excellence - Audit Logs solution installed, you will see a failure on import:

To resolve this state, see
#6018
