## :tada: Major updates

### *Milestone feature*: reworked authorization header :tada:

We made **direct authorization** to the provider endpoints possible. Providers can now use the `authorization` header to expect tokens directly from consumers. The token from the initial gateway login will then use the new `x-apx-authorization` header instead. \
This *does not break existing subscriptions*, consumption can also be carried on using the original authorization header.

### Further feature releases

* We added a **step-by-step guide for subscribers** how to consume subscribed services. The Technical Setup section of your subscriptions now shows the necessary steps to make a successful API call, along with dynamically generated cURL examples.
* The interface now supports **multiple currencies** for the pricing of plans. Tenant administrators can define in the Admin Area which currencies should be available for all workspaces.
* It is now possible to **delete APIs** from your API collection, as long as they are not assigned to any live plan.
* Administrators can now see the **list of users** for every workspace in their tenant.

## :tools: Improvements & fixes

* The Workspace Users list now also shows the email address for each user.
* The parser for uploaded APIs will now give you more detailed error descriptions.
* Improved the workspace selection drop-down by pinning the active workspace to the top of the list, and included a direct link to manage the users of the active workspace.
* Increased character limit for API keys used as Consumer Clients.
* Fixed the mail delivery of subscription approval requests to providers.
* ...and many more.
