2026-08-27 (Chart Release 5.35.0)

Release notes

• The PostgreSQL connection pool implementation was switched to hasql-resource-pool.
  The agingTimeout setting is now ignored and should be treated as deprecated.
  Pool metrics now include acquisition/session latency. (#5323)

• Background-worker now runs additional jobs and has new settings. The jobs settings configure the dispatcher, worker, retry, shutdown, and reaper behavior, with defaults matching the existing behavior. The initial queues are meetings and conversations, with one worker pool assigned to each queue.

  Operators should size the background-worker PostgreSQL pool and PostgreSQL max_connections for this workload and the transient connection used while acquiring the migration lock; that connection is closed after migrations complete. jobs.workerThreads defaults to 1.

  Both worker pools use the same PostgreSQL pool. Connections are borrowed for active job transactions and short-lived worker operations, rather than being reserved permanently per pool. LISTEN/NOTIFY is disabled, so the job runner does not open an additional listener connection.

  The Helm chart sets background-worker.terminationGracePeriodSeconds to 40, providing a margin over the default jobs.gracefulShutdownTimeout of 30s. Adjust both settings together if changing the shutdown timeout. (#5289)

• • The backgroundEffects team feature flag is deprecated (WPB-27912). Its
    default is now enabled and locked, and the Helm configuration override for
    backgroundEffects has been removed from charts/wire-server. The flag's
    data type and its public/internal HTTP endpoints are retained for backward
    compatibility; any Helm overrides for backgroundEffects are now ignored and
    can be removed. The public/internal HTTP endpoints return 404 at API version
    v17 and remain available through v16; the flag type remains deprecated. The
    aggregate GET /feature-configs and GET /teams/:tid/features endpoints
    continue to include backgroundEffects at all API versions, including v17. (#5431)

• Make SCIM error responses comply with RFC7644. Any code that processes SCIM error responses must be changed to follow the standard, instead of the previous Wire implementation.

  Previous schema (incompatible with RFC):

  {
    "code": 400,
    "label": "scim-error",
    "message": "{\"detail\":\"[...]\",\"schemas\":[\"urn:ietf:params:scim:api:messages:2.0:Error\"],\"scimType\":\"invalidValue\",\"status\":\"400\"}"
  }
  

  New schema (RFC-compliant):

  {
    "schemas": ["urn:ietf:params:scim:api:messages:2.0:Error"],
    "status": "400"
    "scimType": "invalidValue",
    "detail": "[...]",
  }
  ``` (#5439)
  
  

• SCIM: Make role and entitlements fields in user schema comply with RFC. Any code that processes SCIM users must be changed to follow the standard, instead of the previous Wire implementation.

  Previous User schema (incompatible with RFC):

  {
    ...
    "roles": ["member"],
    "entitlements": ["some entitlement"],
    ...
  }
  

  New schema (RFC-compliant):

  {
    ...
    "roles": [{"value" : "member"}],
    "entitlements": [{"value" : "some entitlement"}],
    ...
  }
  

  For backwards compatibility, both fields still accept the old bare-string form on input. (#5440)

• Added a new galley setting settings.meetings.pastEditPeriod (default 24h): how far into the past PUT /meetings/{domain}/{id} may move a meeting's start_time/end_time, so past and ongoing meetings can be corrected after the fact. Previously any start time in the past (beyond a 60s tolerance) was rejected while a meeting was still upcoming. Galley refuses to start if pastEditPeriod is negative or greater than settings.meetings.validityPeriod. (#5451)

• Update meeting conversations from {private, invite} to {invite, code} so meetings can be joined by code. (#5464)

• The prevent adminless groups feature has known bugs. Disable and lock it by
  Helm configuration for now. Development of this feature will continue, it
  should just not be used in production as-is. (#5472)

• The reaper chart no longer grants itself cluster-admin and no longer uses an
  unmaintained container image. Upgrading is a drop-in helm upgrade; no manual steps.

  Two cases need action:

  • If you override image in your values, update the override: the default changed from
    docker.io/bitnamilegacy/kubectl:1.32.4 to docker.io/alpine/kubectl:1.36.3. The
    image must contain a POSIX shell at /bin/sh — distroless kubectl images do not work.
  • If you mirror images into a private registry (airgapped installs), add the new image.

  See charts/reaper/README.md for the image settings, the RBAC the chart now creates,
  and the rest of the changes. (#5444)

• • The meetingsPremium team feature flag is deprecated (WPB-26771). It no
    longer affects meeting behaviour: team meetings are always non-trial
    regardless of its value. Its default is now enabled and locked, and the
    Helm configuration override for meetingsPremium has been removed from
    charts/wire-server. The flag's data type and its public/internal HTTP
    endpoints are retained for backward compatibility but have no behavioural
    effect; any Helm overrides for meetingsPremium are now ignored and can be
    removed. The public/internal HTTP endpoints now return 404 at API version v17
    and remain available through v16; the flag type remains deprecated. The aggregate GET /feature-configs and GET /teams/:tid/features endpoints continue to include meetingsPremium at all API versions, including v17. (#5326)
• • Galley has a new optional settings.meetings.email configuration block
    (WPB-27175) for sending meeting-invitation emails to invited external
    addresses. It takes a required from sender, an optional replyTo address,
    and a transport that selects AWS SES or SMTP (the same shape Brig uses).
    When the block is unset, meeting invitation emails are disabled. For SMTP,
    set galley.secrets.smtpPassword (mounted at
    /etc/wire/galley/secrets/smtp-password.txt) and point
    settings.meetings.email.smtp.passwordFile at that path; the Galley ConfigMap
    injects it into transport.smtpCredentials.smtpPassword, the same pattern
    Brig uses for smtp.passwordFile. This change adds the
    configuration plumbing only; email sending itself lands in a follow-up. (#5346)

• Starting at API version V17, the Meeting type returned and accepted by the
  meetings endpoints carries tzid (IANA time zone) and drops the deprecated
  trial field; end_time is retained on both V17 and V16. The operator config
  galley.config.settings.meetings.legacyTimeZone (default Europe/Berlin) now
  applies only to meetings created by legacy clients (API < V17); reads no longer
  need it, as tzid is persisted NOT NULL (backfilled to Europe/Berlin). (#5391)

API changes

• SCIM user resources returned by spar now include type on stored email
  addresses. Previously spar persisted no type, so SCIM PATCH operations with a
  value-path filter like emails[type eq "work"].value (as sent by Microsoft
  Entra ID) never matched the stored entry and silently appended a duplicate
  email instead of updating the address in place. Clients that compare full SCIM
  user payloads rather than individual fields (e.g. strict equality on the
  emails array) will see the additional type member. (WPB-23434) (#5419)

• Introduced meeting-specific conversation lifecycle events: conversation.create-meeting and conversation.delete-meeting. When a conversation of type meeting (group_conv_type: "meeting") is created or deleted, clients receive these instead of conversation.create / conversation.delete. The payloads are identical to their non-meeting counterparts (conversation.delete-meeting, like conversation.delete, carries no data); only the event type differs, so clients can handle meetings distinctly. (WPB-26626) (#5421)

• POST /meetings (create) and PUT /meetings/{domain}/{id} (update) now return a full conversation object alongside the existing meeting fields. The legacy qualified_conversation field is retained for backward compatibility. (#5301)

• Roll back: do not include collaborator apps in get-apps end-point. (#5402)

• The backgroundEffects team feature endpoints are deprecated and return 404 for
  clients on API version v17: the public GET/PUT /teams/:tid/features/backgroundEffects
  and the internal legacy lock PUT /i/teams/:tid/features/backgroundEffects/(un)?locked.
  They remain available through v16. The aggregate endpoints
  GET /feature-configs and GET /teams/:tid/features are unaffected and continue
  to include backgroundEffects at all API versions: the aggregate feature list is
  version-agnostic, like other version-gated features such as MLS. (#5431)

• Make scim error responses comply with RFC7644. (#5439)

• SCIM: advertise all schemas used in User (fixes RFC compliance issue). (#5441)

• SCIM: Make role and entitlements fields in user schema comply with RFC. (#5440)

• The mlsMigration team feature config now includes an allowManualMigration
  boolean field (default false) that controls whether clients are permitted to
  perform single-group (manual) MLS migrations. The field only steers client
  behaviour (e.g. if a migration button is shown or not). It does not enforce
  checks in the backend. (#5456)

• New oauth scopes for meetings for calendar integration. (#5462)

• Meeting endpoints (POST /meetings, PUT/DELETE /meetings/:domain/:id, meeting invitation endpoints): errors have dedicated descriptions. (#5455)

• PUT /meetings/{domain}/{id} now accepts an optional tzid field to update a
  meeting's IANA time zone. (#5479)

• Finalize api version 17. (#5482)

• To prevent security-relevant configuration mistakes, make configuration of
  allowed IdP certificate fingerprints (idpCertFingerprintAllowlist) mandatory for
  multi-ingress SSO. This will break existing multi-ingress SSO flows until
  idpCertFingerprintAllowlist is configured! This breakage is unfortunately
  necessary, because we're getting more lenient regarding the IdPs a user can use
  to log in ("auto IdP migration"). Regular (non-multi-ingress) use cases are
  unaffected. (#5327)

• +GET /conversations/{domain}/{id} and the legacy GET /conversations/{id} now return 404 (no-conversation) when the conversation is a meeting, on API versions prior to V16, instead of returning the conversation with group_conv_type: null. The legacy batch endpoint GET /conversations?ids=… — itself removed at V3, so only ever available on V1–V2 — likewise omits meeting conversations from its results. Meeting conversations remain fully accessible from V16 onwards. (WPB-26626) (#5382)

• The meetingsPremium team feature endpoints are deprecated and return 404 for
  clients on API version v17: the public GET/PUT /teams/:tid/features/meetingsPremium
  and the internal legacy lock PUT /i/teams/:tid/features/meetingsPremium/(un)?locked.
  They remain available through v16. The flag has had no behavioural effect since
  WPB-26771 (team meetings are always non-trial). The aggregate endpoints
  GET /feature-configs and GET /teams/:tid/features are unaffected and continue
  to include meetingsPremium at all API versions: the aggregate feature list is
  version-agnostic, like other version-gated features such as MLS. (WPB-26771) (#5364)

• Reject meeting creation and update when the start time is in the past (with a 60-second tolerance for clock skew). Previously, meetings could be created with arbitrary past start times. (#5325)

• GET /meetings/list and GET /meetings/{domain}/{id} no longer return 403 invalid-op when the caller's team has the meetings feature disabled. The read endpoints now treat a disabled feature as "no meetings": GET /meetings/list returns 200 [], and GET /meetings/{domain}/{id} returns 404 meeting-not-found. Write operations (create, update, delete, invitation mutations) still return 403 invalid-op when the feature is disabled. Previously these read endpoints returned an undocumented 403 invalid-op for members of teams with the meetings feature disabled. (#5353)

• The meetings endpoints (POST /meetings, PUT /meetings/{domain}/{id}, GET /meetings/{domain}/{id}, GET /meetings/list) drop the deprecated trial field from the Meeting response starting at API version V17. On V15–V16 the field is still present but always returns false (team meetings are never trial; see WPB-26771). The underlying storage is unchanged. (#5363)

• PUT /meetings/{domain}/{id} can now edit a meeting that has already started (an ongoing meeting). The start-time-not-in-the-past validation added by WPB-26773 previously rejected any update whose start_time was in the past, which also blocked legitimate edits to ongoing meetings — whose start time is naturally in the past; the check now applies only to meetings that have not started yet. Creating a meeting with a past start time, and moving an upcoming meeting's start time into the past, remain rejected (WPB-27465). (#5373)

• Starting at API version V17, the Meeting type carries a tzid (IANA time
  zone) and drops the deprecated trial field; end_time is retained on both V17
  and V16. A V17 update that supplies only start_time leaves end_time
  unchanged — pass end_time to reschedule the end. (#5391)

Features

• Manual team invitations now conflict when a matching pending SCIM invitation already exists for the same team and email address. (#5400)

• Add user contact-status enrichment to user listings based on available Proteus and MLS contact methods. (#5371)

• Introduce schedulable background jobs, migrate meetings cleanup to the new job runner, and add the initial adminless reminder and deletion jobs. (#5289)

• Skip senderless prevent-adminless deletion for federated conversations with remote members to prevent remote state drift. (#5425)

• Add adminless-group reconciliation, teardown, and system events for member updates, reminders, and deletion. (#5357, #5390)

• Filter Wire Meetings lifecycle events only on the originating client connection. (#5428)

• When a team uses multiple SAML IdPs (one per ingress domain) in a multi-ingress
  setup, users can now authenticate via any of the team's IdPs even if their
  account was originally provisioned under a different one. Spar resolves the
  correct account by email-based NameID lookup across all team IdPs and migrates
  the user's SSO identity to the authenticating IdP transparently.

  Important: Email addresses (NameIDs) must be unique across configured
  IdPs! Otherwise, users may be logged into wrong accounts!

  Please refer to the documentation for further information. (#5212)

• • Added meeting lifecycle events: meeting.create, meeting.update, and
    meeting.delete (WPB-26705). These websocket notifications are pushed to all
    local members of the meeting's conversation on every successful create, update,
    and delete operation. Each payload carries the event type, the meeting's
    qualified ID in the top-level qualified_id field, the
    qualified_conversation, qualified_from, via, time, and optional team.
    Meeting events use a dedicated event envelope (not the conversation event
    envelope). (#5330)

• Added meeting.member-add websocket event (WPB-27620). When a user becomes a
  member of an MLS meeting conversation, a meeting.member-add lifecycle event is
  pushed to the newly-added local members, alongside the existing meeting.create,
  meeting.update, and meeting.delete events. The payload uses the same meeting
  event structure as the other meeting lifecycle events. (#5383)

Bug fixes and other updates

• When a user is put under SCIM control, any pending email-address update is now invalidated (the unvalidated email and its activation token are removed). Previously, team settings kept offering a "resend verification" action that could not succeed (failing with 403 managed-by-scim), and a stale activation link could still change a SCIM-managed user's email outside of SCIM. (#5333)

• Release a handle claimed after a SCIM invitation expired, before cleanup, preventing a subsequent team invitation from using that handle. (#5400)

• SCIM PATCH now supports the emails multi-valued attribute (e.g. Entra's
  emails[type eq "work"].value), so user emails can be updated via SCIM. Identity
  providers that previously hit a can not lens into multi-valued attributes yet
  error when provisioning emails now succeed. (#5419)

• SCIM email metadata is now persisted and echoed verbatim. spar stores the
  type and primary sub-attributes of the SCIM email entry it keeps (in
  spar.scim_user_times) and echoes them back on GET/POST/PATCH exactly as the
  IdP sent them, instead of synthesizing a hardcoded type of "work" (email
  type values are limited to 64 characters). As a result, PATCH value-path
  filters like Entra's emails[type eq "work"].value and Okta's
  emails[primary eq true].value match the stored entry for an in-place update
  when (and only when) the IdP actually supplied that metadata at provisioning
  time; users provisioned without it echo neither field. Since per RFC 7644
  §3.5.2 an Add on a non-existing target creates it, a type-filter PATCH
  against a user whose stored email carries no such metadata appends a new
  entry (which the single-email reduction collapses back to the old address,
  i.e. no visible change), while a primary-filter PATCH is a complete no-op. (#5419)

• SCIM user provisioning now rejects requests (HTTP 400) that mark more than one
  email as primary, an RFC 7643 §2.4 violation. Previously spar silently picked
  one primary and dropped the rest, masking client-side misconfiguration. Requests
  with zero or one primary email are unchanged. (#5419)

• Fixed asset uploads with non-ASCII filenames when audit logging is enabled. Audit-log metadata is now percent-encoded before being stored in S3 metadata headers and decoded when read back. (#5359)

• Fix nginz routes for delete / update collaborator. Move collaborator CRUD api to galley. (#5334)

• Users marked non-searchable are no longer returned across federation. (#5282)

• If apps are re-enabled in the team, DO NOT re-activate any apps in the team. (#5347)

• Wire Meetings lifecycle events (meeting.create, meeting.update, meeting.delete) are no longer delivered to the user who triggered the action, consistent with how other event types avoid echoing back to the originator. Previously the creator/updater/deleter received their own meeting event. (#5426)

• Allow team admin to remove bot from all conversations, instead of crashing. (This is how it's already done in 'finishDeleteService'.) (#5450)

• Fix openapi3 docs for oauth scopes. (#5457)

• Enable claiming key packages for ephemeral users (#5339)

• The federator internal listener's /i/status health check now correctly verifies the external listener is ready instead of checking itself, so readiness no longer reports up before the external federation listener is bound. (#5403)

• Reorder SSO nginx locations to enforce correct rate limiting:
  /sso/get-by-email needs to appear before /sso in nginx's config, because
  regex locations are matched in order (first-match), not by specificity. In
  previous order /sso caught before /sso/get-by-email applied the specific
  5r/m rate limit, leaving it on the generic 50r/s limit. (#5341)

• Fixed Content Security Policy header scoping in multi-ingress Kubernetes configuration. CSP headers set via the Ingress nginx configuration-snippet are now properly scoped to exclude the webapp domain, preventing conflicts with the webapp's own CSP headers that are set independently. (#5432)

• SCIM: Avoid assigning an already claimed handle to a user.

  Before this if SCIM created a user with a handle already claimed by another user
  the handle would get stored for the user even if the overall SCIM call fails. (#5475)

• SCIM PATCH on emails now handles the email type and primary
  sub-attributes per RFC 7644 §3.5.2.2 and RFC 7643 §2.5:
  remove emails[type eq "work"].type (or .primary) unassigns just that
  sub-attribute and keeps the entry (including the address and the other
  sub-attribute) instead of deleting the whole record; replace/add with an
  explicit "value": null unassigns the sub-attribute the same way; and a
  filterless remove emails clears all email entries. Removing or nulling the
  .value sub-attribute is rejected with a 400 pointing at whole-entry removal,
  since the address is the record's identity. As a consequence of preserving
  explicit null values in PATCH operations, replace with null on
  displayName/externalId/active now unassigns the attribute (RFC 7643 §2.5)
  like the corresponding remove already did, instead of failing with
  "No value was provided". (#5419)

• Fixed a discrepancy between the canonical searchVisibility feature key used in runtime JSON and the legacy teamSearchVisibility key used in YAML configuration. Both names are now accepted; no configuration changes or other operator actions are required. (#5338)

Internal changes

• Fix integration test cleanup on federation instance V2. (#5447)

• Update postgres schema dump. (#5461)

• Move email template completeness tests from brig to wire-subsystems. (#5429)

• Rename Wire.ScimUserTimesStore to Wire.ScimUserMetaStore (ScimUserTimes -> ScimUserMeta); the store also holds SCIM email metadata now. The Cassandra table spar.scim_user_times is unchanged. (#5419)

• Move Spar.Sem.Reporter to Wire.Reporter (#5377)

• Move Spar.Sem.SamlProtocolSettings to Wire.SamlProtocolSettings (#5377)

• Move Brig.Effects.JwtTools in Wire.JwtTools. (#5396)

• Move Brig.Budget in Wire.BudgetStore. (#5397)

• Move Galley.Effects.Queue in Wire.BoundedQueue. (#5398)

• Move Spar.Sem.ScimUserTimesStore to Wire.ScimUserTimesStore. (#5378)

• Move Spar.Sem.DefaultSsoCode in Wire.DefaultSsoStore (#5379)

• Move Spar.Sem.IdPRawMetadataStore to Wire.IdPRawMetadataStore. (#5380)

• Move Spar.Sem.VerdictFormatStore in Wire.VerdictFormatStore. (#5388)

• Move Spar.Sem.ScimExternalIdStore in Wire.ScimExternalIdStore. (#5392, #5423)

• Read the DPoP public key bundle once at startup and cache it, instead of
  re-reading the file on every request; the PublicKeyBundle effect is removed. (#5393)

• Move Brig.Effects.UserPendingActivationStore in Wire.UserPendingActivationStore. (#5394)

• Move Brig.Effects.SFT in Wire.SFT. (#5395)

• In multi-domain (multi-ingress) mode, the wire-ingress chart now applies the
  httpRoute.annotations passthrough to every per-domain HTTPRoute, so external-dns
  weighted-record annotations (set-identifier/aws-weight) work across all backend
  domains. The service.create toggle also applies in multi-domain deployments. (#5307)

• Extract MLS key-package handling into a subsystem and split Cassandra access into a dedicated store. (#5368)

• Added partial indexes and rewrote the meetings cleanup query so the background
  worker stays fully index-backed as the meetings table grows:

  • idx_meetings_recurrence_eff_end on GREATEST(end_time, recurrence_until)
    for bounded recurring meetings (covers the recurring branches of the list and
    cleanup queries).
  • idx_meetings_end_time_nonrecurring on end_time for non-recurring meetings,
    so cleanup can find expired non-recurring meetings without scanning
    not-yet-expired recurring rows whose original slot is long past.
    getOldMeetingsImpl now issues one bounded, index-backed query per meeting kind
    and merges the two batches. (#5328)

• Added a meetings_recurrence_consistency CHECK constraint so the recurrence
  columns can never be left in a partially-set state (frequency is the master
  switch; interval is required when set; recurrence_until stays optional for
  open-ended recurring meetings). (#5328)

• The wire-ingress and nginx-ingress-services charts now expose annotation
  passthroughs (httpRoute.annotations on the HTTPRoutes, ingress.annotations on
  the Ingresses), so external-dns weighted records (set-identifier/aws-weight) can
  be attached to both routers for a zero-downtime nginx-to-Envoy DNS cutover.
  wire-ingress also gains a service.create toggle (default true) to reuse the
  backend Services owned by nginx-ingress-services while both run in parallel. (#5358)

• Make haddocks more readable. (#5446)

• When using the wire-ingress provided EnvoyProxy, ensure the request path's query string is removed from the logs, to ensure access_tokens passed as query string are not logged. Browsers are required to pass them on a query string on some endpoints such as /await. (#5361)

• Moved the following endpoints from development version V17 to the new development version V18: PUT /conversations/:domain/:cnv/members (rejection of replacements that would leave a group adminless), PUT /teams/:tid/features/preventAdminlessGroups (duration-string request body), and POST /register (403 for SCIM-managed users changing their name). V17 behaves like V16 for these endpoints. API version V18 was created as a development version; V17 remains a development version until finalized. The changelog entry for the moved members endpoint is parked in changelog.d/99-pending/, which mk-changelog.sh and mk-cleanup.sh now skip. (#5468)

• Automate license header updates in treefmt. (#5481)

• Cannon now logs an error when registering a client's remote presence with
  Gundeck fails, so operators can tell this apart from an actual
  websocket/network issue (e.g. PongTimeout caused by Gundeck losing its Redis
  connection). (#5454)

• The alpine base images used by the cannon-configurator initContainer (wire-server
  chart) and the job-done container (cassandra-migrations chart) are no longer
  hard-coded. They can now be set via cannon.configuratorImage.{repository,tag,pullPolicy}
  in the wire-server chart and jobDoneImage.{repository,tag} in the
  cassandra-migrations chart.

  The default was bumped from alpine:3.21.3 to alpine:3.24.1, since alpine 3.21
  reaches end-of-support on 2026-11-01. The local integration stack's init_vhosts
  container also moved from alpine/curl:3.14 (an Alpine 3.14 image last published
  in 2021) to alpine/curl:8.21.0.

  Operators who mirror images into a private registry should make sure the new
  alpine:3.24.1 tag is cached, or override repository to point at their mirror.

  The chart release tooling (hack/bin/set-wire-server-image-version.sh,
  hack/bin/set-chart-image-version.sh) now anchors its version stamping to
  repository: quay.io/wire/ lines instead of matching tag: by indentation, so
  third-party image tags in values.yaml are no longer overwritten with the
  wire-server release version. (#5408)

• Updated email templates to v1.0.155 (#5344)

• Fix #sbom Nix env / sbomnix usage by upgrading to latest stable version of
  the latter. The issue was introduced by upgrading nixpkgs to 26.05.

• brig: Remove /i/users/rich-info (#5384)

• remove sftd_disco (now lives in wireapp/wire-avs-service) (#5056)

• Use wire image mirror for integration tests as public.ecr.aws/bitnami/ is no
  longer available
  (https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/containers/bitnami-image-removal-from-ecr-public/).
  Docker Hub has strict rate-limiting. So, in lieu of better options, we now use
  our own image cache at quay.io/wire/mirror-images. (#5360)

• Internal: meetings.tzid is now NOT NULL, backfilled to Europe/Berlin.
  end_time is the source of truth (there are no duration/duration_original
  columns). (WPB-27553) (#5391)

• The Z-Host header has been treated as domain, but used as Text.
  De-serializing and thus using it as Domain increases type-safety and ensures
  domain related semantics; e.g. case insensitivity in equality checks.
  This solves a FUTUREWORK remark which was around for quite some time. (#5320)

Federation changes

• deeplink.json now contains a new optional field supportEmail that may be used by clients. (#5351)
