    • New field in Device — auto_device, indicating that the device is automatically connected
  • Replaced int with long for queries in CategoryQueriesStats, for used in AccountLimits, and for blocked and queries in QueriesStats

v1.7​

Released on March 11, 2024

  • Added dedicated IPv4 addresses functionality:
    • Dedicated IPv4 addresses can now be used on devices for DNS server configuration
    • Dedicated IPv4 address is now associated with the device it is linked to, so that queries made to this address are logged for that device
  • Added new operations:
    • List all available dedicated IPv4 addresses
    • Allocate new dedicated IPv4 address
    • Link an available IPv4 address to a device
    • Unlink an IPv4 address from a device
    • Request info on dedicated addresses associated with a device
  • Added new limits to Account limits:
    • dedicated_ipv4 provides information about the amount of already allocated dedicated IPv4 addresses, as well as the limit on them
  • Removed deprecated field of DNSServerSettings:
    • safebrowsing_enabled

v1.6​

Released on January 22, 2024

  • Added new Access settings section for DNS profiles (access_settings). By customizing these fields, you’ll be able to protect your AdGuard DNS server from unauthorized access:

    • allowed_clients — here you can specify which clients can use your DNS server. This field will have priority over the blocked_clients field
    • blocked_clients — here you can specify which clients are not allowed to use your DNS server
    • blocked_domain_rules — here you can specify which domains are not allowed to access your DNS server, as well as define such domains with wildcard and DNS filtering rules

  • Added new limits to Account limits:

    • access_rules provides the sum of currently used blocked_clients and blocked_domain_rules values, as well as the limit on access rules
    • user_rules shows the amount of created user rules, as well as the limit on them

  • Added a new ip_log_enabled setting to log client IP addresses and domains

  • Added new error code FIELD_REACHED_LIMIT to indicate when limits have been reached:

    • For the total number of blocked_clients and blocked_domain_rules in access settings
    • For rules in custom user rules settings

v1.5​

Released on June 16, 2023

  • Added a new block_nrd setting and grouped all security-related settings in one place

Model for safebrowsing settings changed​

From:

{
   "enabled": true
}

To:

{
   "enabled": true,
   "block_dangerous_domains": true,
   "block_nrd": false
}

where enabled now controls all settings in the group, block_dangerous_domains is the previous enabled model field, and block_nrd is a setting that blocks newly registered domains.

Model for saving server settings changed​

From:

{
  "protection_enabled" : true,
  "safebrowsing_enabled" : true,
  ..
}

to:

{
  "protection_enabled" : true,
  "safebrowsing_settings" : {
     "enabled": true,
     "block_dangerous_domains": true,
     "block_nrd": false
  }
  ..
}

here a new field safebrowsing_settings is used instead of the deprecated safebrowsing_enabled, whose value is stored in block_dangerous_domains.
