 ### ✨ New Functionality
 
 - Add support for using the Zero Trust Identity Service (ZTIS) on Kyma by detecting the [well-known environment variable `SPIFFE_ENDPOINT_SOCKET`](https://github.com/spiffe/spiffe/blob/main/standards/SPIFFE_Workload_Endpoint.md#4-locating-the-endpoint).
+- Add support for explicitly passing the `clientid` of the target system when using the IAS App2App authentication flow.
+  Use the new methods `withProviderClient(clientid)` and `withProviderClient(clientid, apptid)` under `BtpServiceOptions.IasOptions`.
