 ## Changelog
 
 - v0.8
+   - NOTE: configuration option: "api_domain" deprecated!
+   - New
+      - Automatic HTTP API certificate provisioning using DNS challenges making acme-dns able to acquire certificates even with HTTP api not being accessible from public internet.
+      - Configuration value for "tls": "letsencryptstaging". Setting it will help you to debug possible issues with HTTP API certificate acquiring process. This is the new default value.
    - Changed
       - Fixed: EDNS0 support
+      - Migrated from autocert to [certmagic](https://github.com/mholt/certmagic) for HTTP API certificate handling
 - v0.7.2
    - Changed
       - Fixed: Regression error of not being able to answer to incoming random-case requests.
