# App Store Connect API 1.5 release notes

Update your server-side code to use new features, and test your code against API changes.

## Discussion

App Store Connect API version 1.5 provides resources that enable you to automate actions you take in App Store Connect.

### New features

- [Xcode Cloud Workflows and Builds](/documentation/AppStoreConnectAPI/xcode-cloud-workflows-and-builds) can now automate reading Xcode Cloud data, managing workflows, and starting builds.
- [App Store Version Release Requests](/documentation/AppStoreConnectAPI/app-store-version-release-requests) now support manually releasing an App Store-approved version of your app to the App Store.
- The [`BetaGroup.Attributes`](/documentation/AppStoreConnectAPI/BetaGroup/Attributes-data.dictionary) adds an `isInternalGroup` property to support creating internal beta tester groups for TestFlight, in [Beta Groups](/documentation/AppStoreConnectAPI/beta-groups).
- The [`AppInfoLocalization.Attributes`](/documentation/AppStoreConnectAPI/AppInfoLocalization/Attributes-data.dictionary) in [App Metadata](/documentation/AppStoreConnectAPI/app-metadata) adds a `privacyChoicesURL` property.
- The API now supports JSON web tokens that can last longer than 20 minutes for resources that meet the required criteria. For more information, see [Generating Tokens for API Requests](/documentation/AppStoreConnectAPI/generating-tokens-for-api-requests).

### Deprecations

- The `Advertising Identifier (IDFA) Declarations` resource and all its associated endpoints and objects are now deprecated, including: `Create an IDFA Declaration`, `Modify an IDFA Declaration`, `Delete an IDFA Declaration`, `Read the IDFA Declaration Information of an App Store Version`, `IdfaDeclaration`, `IdfaDeclarationCreateRequest`, `IdfaDeclarationUpdateRequest`, and `IdfaDeclarationResponse`.
