  Microsoft does not publish a dated API changelog for the Dataverse Web API itself. The
  authoritative dated change record for Dynamics 365 Sales is the release-plan feature table,
  which carries a public-preview date and a general-availability date per feature. Recent
  window only; the plan page is the source of truth.
