## :tada: Major updates

### Milestone feature: *API status* :tada:

Providers have now the option to set **statuses on published APIs** (Operational, Degraded, Major Outage, Maintenance). Service subscribers will be informed of status changes automatically, and can thus be informed of ongoig incidents as well as planned downtimes, all within the portal UI. A status history of individual APIs, as well as a live overview of all consumed/provided APIs is also available.

### Further feature releases

* Hugely improved the portal's UI with a **center stage layout.**

## :tools: Improvements & fixes

* A new Data Insights section was introduced to the left hand menu of My Hub.
* Added notification to workspace owners if another owner deletes the workspace.
* Improved plan cancellation workflow and user experience.
* Fixed redirection when logging in from certain subpages.
* Fixed a bug with frozen Manage Plans button on Service cards under certain conditions.
* ...and many more.
