## About the changes
Adds a note about new installations starting with version where most
events and features should have a created_by userid set and thus not
need this configuration option/corresponding scheduled data migration
task
## About the changes
- Removes the feature flag for the created_by migrations.
- Adds a configuration option in IServerOption for
`ENABLE_SCHEDULED_CREATED_BY_MIGRATION` that defaults to `false`
- the new configuration option when set on startup enables scheduling of
the two created_by migration services (features+events)
- Removes the dependency on flag provider in EventStore as it's no
longer needed
- Adds a brief description of the new configuration option in
`configuring-unleash.md`
- Sets the events created_by migration interval to 15 minutes, up from
2.

We have a v1 for a Java Spring Boot Tutorial:
- uses popular Java Spring Boot open source project Spring Pet Clinic
- uses Unleash Spring Boot SDK
- this is simple & introductory as we don't have data plugged into the
new page we build in the application.

I added the tutorial to the Java section in the docs navigation menu. I
could have it stand alone, but I would consider it to be underneath the
Java language we have already listed in our menu.

Some of the slugs for the tutorials were handled in the config file with
the other redirects, some were handled locally in the markdown file.
This moves all the tutorial slugs to the markdown file, and fixes the
slug of the SvelteKit tutorial so it's the same as the others.

This change addresses the question in #6542 about using non-string
operators on string values by clarifying that Unleash SDK converts the
string values before performing the comparison.

## About the changes
When edge is configured to automatically generate tokens, it requires
the token to be present in all unleash instances.
It's behind a flag which enables us to turn it on on a case by case
scenario.
The risk of this implementation is that we'd be adding load to the
database in the middleware that evaluates tokens (which are present in
mostly all our API calls. We only query when the token is missing but
because the /client and /frontend endpoints which will be the affected
ones are high throughput, we want to be extra careful to avoid DDoSing
ourselves
## Alternatives:
One alternative would be that we merge the two endpoints into one.
Currently, Edge does the following:
If the token is not valid, it tries to create a token using a service
account token and /api/admin/create-token endpoint. Then it uses the
token generated (which is returned from the prior endpoint) to query
/api/frontend. What if we could call /api/frontend with the same service
account we use to create the token? It may sound risky but if the same
application holding the service account token with permission to create
a token, can call /api/frontend via the generated token, shouldn't it be
able to call the endpoint directly?
The purpose of the token is authentication and authorization. With the
two tokens we are authenticating the same app with 2 different
authorization scopes, but because it's the same app we are
authenticating, can't we just use one token and assume that the app has
both scopes?
If the service account already has permissions to create a token and
then use that token for further actions, allowing it to directly call
/api/frontend does not necessarily introduce new security risks. The
only risk is allowing the app to generate new tokens. Which leads to the
third alternative: should we just remove this option from edge?

A v1 Java tutorial for docs! I used Java SDK to log flag statuses when
the Java app is running and connected to Unleash.
## Discussion points
<!-- Anything about the PR you'd like to discuss before it gets merged?

It's fairly simple and open to feedback for a new iteration to improve
the intro tutorial. I do weekly documentation improvement PRs!
I've held an internal knowledge sharing session on this already. If
someone can think of a better phrasing for the background, I'm all ears.
I think it's just nice to have this documented, so people remember that
our logging framework already has a good way to format errors when you
use the API `logger.error("<message>", e)`
Fixes ##5799 and #5785
When you do not provide a token we should resolve to the "default"
environment to maintain backward compatibility. If you actually provide
a token we should prefer that and even block the request if it is not
valid.
An interesting fact is that "default" environment is not available on a
fresh installation of Unleash. This means that you need to provide a
token to actually get access to toggle configurations.

Having old ADRs makes it harder for newcomers, that have to navigate
through many ADRs and spot the ones that were superseded by others. We
can save the mental burden by just moving the old ones to a deprecated
folder
This change updates the change request scheduling docs to include
information about what happens when a strategy or segment is updated
in the background, as well as updated information about the emails
that it sends out.
This PR updates the images in the feature flags best practices guide to
work on dark backgrounds by giving them white backgrounds (making them
non-transparent).
In doing so, it replaces the links to GitHub with docusaurus assets
(which also yields faster loading) and uses captions to describe the
images.
So we have a place in the docs to refer users struggling with getting
metrics from Edge after upgrade to Unleash v5.9.0, this PR adds a small
troubleshooting note about two fixes.
1. Upgrade Edge
2. Use environmental flag to re-enable old endpoint

## Key Updates in the ADR
- **Separation of Migrations in PRs**: Migrations are now required to be
carried out in separate pull requests. This change is intended to
improve the monitoring and management of database schema changes during
deployment.
- **Primary Key Requirement for New Tables**: A new paragraph mandates
the inclusion of primary keys in all new tables, emphasizing the
importance of data integrity, efficient data retrieval, and supporting
table relationships. Additionally, by adding primary keys, we resolve
the issue of migrations failing during upgrades in replicated database
setups, as we are not using PostgreSQL replica identities. Exceptions to
this rule require a compelling justification.
Also added better structuring and styling to ADR for better readability.

This is a large PR with all of the React examples building on top of the
original tutorial.
Based off of this Google Doc:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1m3ujgyrkJTCGLsEsBr1_eq4HQKqsf-lfvGFDJobns44/edit
I also included updates to the React tutorial links so they are relative
paths, not full URL paths.
I propose we make fast-follow updates to this piece of documentation for
changes we need to make in order to release and iterate on minor
updates.

We want to deprecate and eventually remove the option for admin tokens.
This PR updates the docs to inform readers about the deprecation as well
as recommending what they can use instead.
This PR describes in closer detail what happens when the user who
scheduled a change request is deleted. It mentions the new suspended
state and what the user can do to get out of it.
This change adds a mention of frontend API tokens to the docs. We've
had this functionality for a while, but it appears not to have been
documented.
Realized this as part of triaging #3005.
This commit updates the change request docs to talk about how the new
scheduled state works.
The subsection is marked as "in development", saying that it can
change at any moment until the feature is released.

description of the JS library
- Switched over the demo app to point to an open source project:

App](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress-realworld-app)
- included best practice considerations for client-side development
- updated URL path to point to `/feature-flag-tutorials/react` for
simplification
## Discussion points

Would love feedback on if there's a need for more screenshots? Don't
want to be too screenshot-heavy though I imagine.
And need feedback on the descriptions of "Considerations for using
feature flags in react"
https://github.com/Unleash/unleash/compare/react-improvements?expand=1#diff-96d4956f49f80cd76489a72d4d88c2956ce9dcc695f66fe014ad1185e37cb589R21
Want to make sure that what I described makes sense or if it could use
some tweaking to convey the right message clearly.
## Why
Currently AWS API Gateway doesn't have compression enabled by default,
this PR will make it easier to for example deploy Unleash over to AWS
Lambda without further configuration in API Gateway, frameworks like
Serverless requires a bit more work to set up compression and some times
one might not need compression at all.
## How
Create a new config flag called `disableCompression` which will not
include `compression` middleware in express' instance when set as true.
A benefit of hosting your own edge instance is that it will be as close
to end users as you are.

## About the changes
Adding in an initial React tutorial with Unleash! This includes
installing Unleash, creating a React application with Vite, then
integrating Unleash to use with a CSS-focused feature toggle.
### Important files
- New File:
`website/docs/feature-flag-tutorials/react/implementing-feature-flags.md`
- Added new tutorial to navigation in `sidebars.js` and
`docusaurus.config.js`
There is a lot of room to make more advanced use case additions to this
React tutorial. For example, addressing SSR.
I think that'd be good for a future iteration to be helpful to the
community.
As discovered in the recent segments breakathon, the docs aren't very
clear about how conflicts are handled. This PR better documents when
they can't be deleted or moved. It also mentions the edge case where a
segment is used in an archived flag (it still can't be deleted, so you
must either delete the flag, or revive it and remove the segment)
https://linear.app/unleash/issue/2-1680/adr-specify-tables-when-querying-columns
This PR includes my suggestion of a "Specificity in database column
references" ADR.
The ADR proposes a standard for explicitly specifying the full table
name or alias for each column in our SQL queries, especially for queries
with joins between multiple tables. This decision is a direct response
to recent ambiguity errors encountered due to a database migration,
emphasizing the need for clearer SQL query standards in complex joins
and schema changes.

See [Linear issue
2-1627](https://linear.app/unleash/issue/2-1627/db-permissions-update-docs-and-migration-guides).
Since we now use functions, we need more permissions than just GRANT ALL
PERMISSIONS ON DATBASE. In addition we need to be allowed to create
functions in the schema that's actually being used. This PR takes the
easy way out and say that we need OWNER privileges on the database. That
guarantees that we can do all we do in our migration scripts.
### Discussion points
We might encounter some pushback on this, if so, we'll need to say that
we need
`GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON ALL FUNCTIONS IN <schema>` in addition to GRANT
ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE, where <schema> is the schema selected in
their configuration.
We've been caught out here, we added a migration that used PG>=11
syntax, but our docs still state that we support v10, when it reached
EoL Nov 2022. This updates our docs to state v14 and newer, v14 came out
in 2021 and as such won't be EoL until 2026 according to [Postgres 5
year versioning scheme
support](https://www.postgresql.org/support/versioning/)
## About the changes
While working on Terraform I identified some issues with how our backend
handled some requests. This happened because the Terraform client was
unaware of new fields and was not sending them. This resulted in bad
behavior as some of those missing fields were treated in the backend as
`null` and removed existing data from the DB.
This ADR aims to shed some light on the problem and specifies how our
server should handle these requests.

- Adding a new image to indicate that you also need to save the strategy
after you add a constraint
- Adding a new image showing how the edit constraint section looks like
- Update a bit the text to match the new images
Added a detailed explanation into how frontend / client-side SDKs behave
with regards to fetching multiple feature flags and network
connectivity.
Content has been reviewed/approved by engineering rotation team (Simon
and Chris).
## About the changes
Refactor the main nav, with the following goals:
* Communicate the value of each section vs the format (ex:
“Understanding Unleash” vs “Topic Guides”)
* Make space for the Feature Flag tutorials section that we’re starting
to build
* Scope updates to navigation and pages that need updates based on new
URLs & organization
* Update URLs to follow the new hierarchy without breaking links (adding
redirects & editing internal links between pages as needed)
### Important files
sidebar.js
docusaurus.config.js
## Discussion points
* Redirects can't be tested out of prod, which is a bummer :/
* Some URLs have been preserved untouched while we monitor for potential
negative SEO impact of client-side redirects
* It's a large PR (sorry). Nav changes and file movements impacted lots
of files.

### What
This PR makes the rate limit for user creation and simple login (our
password based login) configurable in the same way you can do
metricsRateLimiting.
### Worth noting
In addition this PR adds a `rate_limit{endpoint, method}` prometheus
gauge, which gets the data from the UnleashConfig.
### What
The heaviest requests we serve are the register and metrics POSTs from
our SDKs/clients.
This PR adds ratelimiting to /api/client/register, /api/client/metrics,
/api/frontend/register and /api/frontend/metrics with a default set to
6000 requests per minute (or 100 rps) for each of the endpoints.
It will be overrideable by the environment variables documented.
### Points of discussion
@kwasniew already suggested using featuretoggles with variants to
control the rate per clientId. I struggled to see if we could
dynamically update the middleware after initialisation, so this attempt
will need a restart of the pod to update the request limit.
PR contains the following:
1) New video embeds for the following docs:
- website/docs/reference/deploy/environment-import-export.mdx
- website/docs/reference/playground.mdx
- website/docs/reference/strategy-constraints.md
- website/docs/topics/a-b-testing.md
2) Improvements to the Academy course playlist embedding for the three
Academy courses. Tested the standard method of embedding video, and it
seems this works well for playlists too.
Switching to the native Docusaurus embed solves the issue with dynamic
resizing. Rather than a static embed size the video will now scale to
the browser window size.

I added the events that I thought were relevant based on my own
discretion. Know of any event we should add? Let me know and I'll add it
🙂
For now I only added these events to the new Slack App integration, but
we can add them to the other integrations as well since they are now
supported.
The event formatter was refactored and changed quite a bit in order to
make it easier to maintain and add new events in the future. As a
result, events are now posted with different text. Do we consider this a
breaking change? If so, I can keep the old event formatter around,
create a new one and only use it for the new Slack App integration.
I noticed we don't have good 404 behaviors in the UI for things that are
deleted in the meantime, that's why I avoided some links to specific
resources (like feature strategies, integration configurations, etc),
but we could add them later if we improve this.
This PR also tries to add some consistency to the the way we log events.
## About the changes
Improvement to the description of the datadog integration. Adds 2
missing event types, removes an event type that is deprecated and about
to be completely removed, adds missing description of extra json headers
and source type name, and adds description for the new configuration
option for JSON body support

This adds a new reference doc for the new Unleash Slack App integration
and marks the previous Slack integration as deprecated.
As a side-effect this PR also fixes an issue where we wouldn't be able
to delete tags with special characters.

## About the changes
While exploring the [About the docs](https://docs.getunleash.io) page
for the first time, I observed the first bulleted list started with
lowercase, which isn't consistent with other sections of the page. This
minor PR capitalizes the first letter of the bullet lists in the
"Documentation structure" section. This ensures the list follows the
existing style across the page and the stable rule of written language
([reference](https://www.purchase.edu/editorial-style-guide/general-style-preferences/punctuation/bulleted-and-numbered-lists/#C)).
We love all open-source Unleash users. in 2022 we built the [segment
capability](https://docs.getunleash.io/reference/segments) (v4.13) as an
enterprise feature, simplify life for our customers.
Now it is time to contribute it to the world 🌏

This PR replaces references to _addons_ in the docs with references to
_integrations_.
In doing so, I have also:
- moved `/reference/addons` documents into `/reference/integrations`
- combined the previous "Addons" and "Integrations" categories into a
new "Integrations" category
- added redirects from all the old addons pages to their new locations
I have updated the wording, but have not changed things such as API
paths, event names, etc, because these will not change at the moment
(maybe a breaking change to schedule for v6?).

https://linear.app/unleash/issue/2-1136/custom-root-roles-documentation
- [Adds documentation referencing custom root
roles](https://unleash-docs-git-docs-custom-root-roles-unleash-team.vercel.app/reference/rbac);
- [Adds a "How to create and assign custom root roles" how-to
guide](https://unleash-docs-git-docs-custom-root-roles-unleash-team.vercel.app/how-to/how-to-create-and-assign-custom-root-roles);
- Standardizes "global" roles to "root" roles;
- Standardizes "standard" roles to "predefined" roles to better reflect
their behavior and what is shown in our UI;
- Updates predefined role descriptions and makes them consistent;
- Updates the side panel description of the user form;
- Includes some boy scouting with some tiny fixes of things identified
along the way (e.g. the role form was persisting old data when closed
and re-opened);
Questions:
- Is it worth expanding the "Assigning custom root roles" section in the
"How to create and assign custom root roles" guide to include the steps
for assigning a root role for each entity (user, service account,
group)?
- Should this PR include an update to the existing "How to create and
assign custom project roles" guide? We've since updated the UI;

This change updates the existing feature toggle types document to add
a new `expected lifetime` section. This section explains better what
lifetimes are, where they come from, and that admins can (soon) change
the expected lifetimes for feature toggles.
This change updates the playground reference docs with some new images
and an explanation of how the results work now.
I have not removed any of the old images because I think they still
illustrate well how the playground works. And because they're not
direct screenshots anyway, that sounds like a fair trade-off to me.
Highlight edge in the first paragraph.
Not sure if we should suggest that it should be the preferred choice,
but at least this helps to realize there's an alternative already in the
first paragraph.
## About the changes
Custom activation strategies are still the recommended way to go in our
documentation, but now most of the use cases for custom activation
strategies can be covered by strategy constraints (released with Unleash
4.16)
With this change, we try to drive people to use strategy constraints.

### What
We had a customer wonder why `/api/proxy/development` wasn't configured
for them. After some digging it was found that they'd followed our
documentation and assumed that the proxy was configured for them.
However, since we no longer host proxies, this was not the case. This PR
updates the documentation to point out that "Unleash hosts everything"
now means that our clients should use Frontend API keys and the
`/api/frontend` endpoint to get what they used to get from embedded
proxies.
## Missing
We should make a new illustration in the same vein as the other
illustrations on this page to demonstrate what the Frontend API really
is. This PR removes the reference to the picture of the topology of
having Unleash hosting proxies.
