ChangeAPI changelog
Anthropic added new Compliance API beta features, Admin API SDK support, and computer/browser use toolsets on Google Cloud; Python SDK v1.0 removes deprecated parameters and changes async response handling.
AUGUST 20, 2026
* We've released v1.0 of the Python SDK. The SDK's HTTP layer moves from httpx to httpx2, a maintained, API-compatible fork: build custom http_client, Timeout, and transport objects from httpx2 (the DefaultHttpxClient helpers are unchanged), and call httpx2.alias_httpx() at startup if you rely on tracing or mocking libraries that patch httpx. v1.0 requires Python 3.10 or later and removes long-deprecated surface, including the legacy Text Completions API, the temperature, top_p, and top_k parameters on Messages methods, and the tool runner's client-side compaction_control. On the async client, .with_raw_response results now need await response.parse(), and AnthropicBedrock now raises an error when no AWS region is configured instead of defaulting to us-east-1. See the v1 migration guide for every change with before-and-after snippets.
AUGUST 26, 2026
* The Compliance API session endpoints are out of beta for Cowork and Claude Code sessions. See Retrieve session transcripts.
* The Compliance API local session endpoints now also return transcripts of Claude Science sessions (product_surface value claude_science) and Claude for Microsoft 365 sessions in Excel, PowerPoint, Word, and Outlook (product_surface values beginning with office_agents), in beta for Claude Enterprise organizations, with your existing Compliance Access Key and the read:compliance_user_data scope. See Sessions on users' machines.
* The Admin API is now available in the ant CLI and the Python, TypeScript, C#, Go, Java, PHP, and Ruby SDKs under client.beta.organization. They cover organization info, members, invites, workspaces and workspace members, API keys, rate limits, service accounts, workload identity federation issuers and rules, and customer-managed encryption keys. Usage and cost reports and the Claude Enterprise user-management and analytics endpoints remain curl-only. The CLI and SDKs read an Admin API key from ANTHROPIC_API_KEY or an org:admin OAuth token from ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN.

* The computer use and browser use toolsets (computer_toolset_20260801 and browser_toolset_20260801) are now available on Google Cloud for Claude Fable 5, Claude Mythos 5, Claude Opus 5, Claude Sonnet 5, and Claude Opus 4.8. Requests use the same tools entries as on the Claude API.
