The page's own "last updated" stamp reads 28 August 2025 with no matching entry. The real change signal is elsewhere — the Discovery Document carries a `revision` field which read 20260731 for BOTH v1 and v1beta when harvested on 2026-08-13, i.e. the contract moved on 31 July 2026 without a release note. Anyone tracking AdMob API change should diff the Discovery Document revision, not watch the changelog. Both snapshots are in discovery/ for exactly that purpose. scheme: dated-release-notes current_version: v1 beta_version: v1beta contract_revision: v1: '20260731' v1beta: '20260731' observed: '2026-08-13' source: https://admob.googleapis.com/$discovery/rest?version=v1 entry_count: 3 entries: - date: '2023-09-05' version: v1beta breaking: false additions: true highlights: >- Numerous new methods added to v1beta — accounts, ad sources and adapters, ad unit mappings, apps, campaign reports, mediation groups and mediation A/B experiments.
