+## Ticket Details
+### Migrated GitHub Integrations
+**Audience:** Partner<br>
+
+#### Description
+The GitHub Actions integration used to be managed via Platforms.
+This has now been migrated to the new Integrations feature which is
+more isolated to and easier to manage. This also has the added benefit
+that you can directly create the integration when you create
+a new building block definition.
+
+### List of integrations
+**Audience:** Partner<br>
+
+#### Description
+The recently introduced GitLab integration and also the migrated GitHub integrations
+are now visible in one list in the Admin Area & Platform Builder. In an upcoming release
+we will also add the ability to create and edit integrations on this screen.
+
+### Fix API Key Sorting by Creation Date
+**Audience:** Customer, Partner<br>
+
+#### Description
+Previously, the panel returned an error when sorting API keys by their
+creation date. This has been fixed.
+
+### Fix euid filter for meshUser endpoint
+**Audience:** Partner, Operator<br>
+
+#### Description
+Previously, the euid filter of the meshUser endpoint of the meshObject API
+did not work correctly. Instead of returning only users with a matching euid,
+all users were returned. This was fixed.
+
+### Tag Catalog Support for Users and Groups
+**Audience:** User<br>
+
+#### Description
+You can now define tag schemas for users and groups in the tag catalog. This enables you to create policies that 
+enforce access rules for users and groups based on their tags, providing better compliance to your teams.
+
+#### How to use
+Navigate to the tag catalog in the administration area to create tag schemas for "User / Group" entities. Once 
+defined, these schemas can be referenced in policies to create rules that automatically apply to users and 
+groups based on their tag values. Note that user and group tags continue to be managed through the existing tag 
+configuration and API.
+
+### Enforce User/Group Policies during Project Creation
+**Audience:** User<br>
+
+#### Description
+We enabled the project role policy evaluation during project creation. If a policy is
+defined between a project role and user/group then assignments can only be made to
+users/groups to the project if the relationship is compliant.
+
+### Improved User Authorization for Creation Flows
+**Audience:** User<br>
+
+#### Description
+In this release, we have redesigned the authorization flow to provide a more intuitive and efficient experience 
+during workspace and project creation. Highlights include a streamlined dropdown interface, user-friendly role 
+and expiration date pickers. This UI overhaul preserves all existing capabilities while improving usability 
+and reducing friction during workspace and project creation.
+
+### Admin Area Button Stays White When Focused On
+**Audience:** Partner<br>
+
+#### Description
+The Admin Area button in the context navigation now maintains its white background color when focused on.
+This update enhances visual consistency and improves user experience by preventing the button from turning black during focus states.
+
+### Add Location Name In Platform Filter
+**Audience:** Partner<br>
+
+#### Description
+The location field has been added to platform filter in communication creation to improve platform identification.
+This change addresses issues where multiple platforms had the same name.
+
+### Deprecated Platform Notification Subscriptions
+**Audience:** User<br>
+
+#### Description
+The legacy platform notification subscriptions have been removed in user profile section. 
+Users will no longer receive notifications through the old system, and all 
+notifications should now be managed through the new Communication Center.
+
+### Deprecated Legacy Platform Notifications
+**Audience:** User<br>
+
+#### Description
+Legacy platform notifications have been deprecated and replaced with the Communication Center. 
+When admin users attempt to send notifications to users through the legacy interface, they will 
+now be shown a deprecation notice and redirected to the new Communication Center.
+
+### Deprecated Legacy Workspace Messages
+**Audience:** User<br>
+
+#### Description
+Legacy workspace messages have been deprecated and replaced with the Communication Center. 
+When admin users attempt to send messages to workspace users through the legacy interface, they will 
+now be shown a deprecation notice and redirected to the new Communication Center.
+
+### Accessible Label For Main Navigation Bar
+**Audience:** User<br>
+
+#### Description
+To support assistive technologies, like screen readers, 
+we have added an accessible name ('Main Navigation') to the main navigation bar.
+
