• A nested spread embedding now correctly groups by the fields of its top parent relationship by @laurenceisla in #3693
• Fix spread embedding errors when using the count() aggregate without a field by @laurenceisla in #3693
  • Fixed "column reference <col> is ambiguous" error when selecting ?select=...table(col,count())
  • Fixed "column <json_aggregate>.<alias> does not exist" error when selecting ?select=...table(aias:count())
• Clarify listener logs by @steve-chavez in #3727
• Clarify Accept: vnd.pgrst.object error message by @steve-chavez in #3795
• Handle queries on non-existing table gracefully by @taimoorzaeem in #3697, #3602

Breaking Changes

• Drop support for Postgres EOL versions: 9.6, 10 and 11 by @wolfgangwalther in #2052.
• Drop support for Prefer: params=single-object by @joelonsql in #3757
  • This preference was deprecated in favor of Functions with an array of JSON objects
• Drop support for Limited updates/deletes by @steve-chavez in #3013
  • The feature was complex and had surprising behavior when using order on mutations.
  • If you'd like to limit affected rows on mutations, you can use the max-affected preference instead.
• Drop Runtime Configuration endpoint of admin server by @steve-chavez in #3956
  • The endpoint was at risk of being left unprotected when exposing it.
  • The accompanying admin-server-config-enabled config was also dropped.

  • The above endpoint is now disabled unless the admin-server-config-enabled config is set to true
