    20  - [#235](https://github.com/esnet/gdg/issues/235) Fixed a bug that prevented proxy grafana instances from working correctly. ie. someURL/grafana/ would not work since it expected grafana to hosted on slash (/).

    49  ## Notes on 0.5.x
    50  
    51  This is going to be a fairly big release and changing several of the expectations that GDG had before.
    52  
    53  The main push for this was to support organizations a bit better, and the only way to really do this correctly was to change the destination path of where the orgs are being saved.  Every entity that supports organization will now be namespace by the org it belongs to.  This will now allow GDG to manage connections and dashboards across multiple organizations.
    54  
    55  The other big change, is that most feature are now namespaced under either 'backup' or 'tools' with the exception context which a GDG concept.  The intent of the CLI was getting a bit murky.  There is functionality to create a service account, modify a user permission and so on which is a good bit different from the initial intent of GDG which was to simply manage entities.  Any additional features beyond the crud are under tools.  This might be split into two different binaries later down the line but the separation helps clarify the intent.
    56  
    57  Datasources have also been deprecated in favor of 'Connections' to match the Grafana naming convention changes.
    58  
    59  
    60  ##  Release Notes for v0.5.0
    61  **Release Date: 09/01/2023**
    62  
    63  ### Changes
    64    - Adding support for Basic CRU for Orgs  [#179](https://github.com/esnet/gdg/issues/179)
    65    - Renamed 'DataSources' command to 'Connections' to match Grafana's naming convention.
    66    - Connection Permissions are now supported.  This is an enterprise features and will only function if you have an enterprise version of grafana.  Enterprise features are enabled by setting `enterprise_support: true` for a given context. [#166](https://github.com/esnet/gdg/issues/166)
    67    - Namespacing all supported entities by organization.
    68    - Add support for custom S3 Provider (ie. enables ceph, minio and other S3 compatible providers to work with GDG), related [discussion](https://github.com/esnet/gdg/discussions/190)
    69  
    70  #### Technical Debt
    71    - Misc dependencies updates for website and gdg dependencies.
    72    - Clean up of the Storage interface
    73    - Updated CICD to only pushed documentation changes on tag release.
    74  
    75  ### Bug Fixes
    76    - Fixed issue with import team member with elevated permissions. [#149](https://github.com/esnet/gdg/issues/149)
    77  
    78  
    79  ### Breaking Changes
    80    - datasources have been renamed as connections.  If you have an existing backup, simply rename the folder to 'connections' and everything should continue working.
    81    - All Orgs namespaced backups (ie. everything except users and orgs) need to be moved under their respective org folder.  ie.  `org_1` where the given Org has an ID of 1.
    82    - All commands have now been moved under 'backup' or 'tools' to better reflect their functionality. [#183](https://github.com/esnet/gdg/issues/183)
    83    - `organization` config is deprecated in favor of `organization_id`.
