SOC 2 TYPE 2 COMPLIANCE
We completed our SOC 2 Type 2 audit for the year.
If you need to explain this to your organization, we’ve created a plain-language one-pager that explains what SOC 2 is, why it matters, and the practices we follow that help keep your deployments secure.

RELEASE SCHEDULE & COMMUNICATION UPDATES
Based on your feedback, we now:
- Publish a release calendar for the year

SDK BREAKING CHANGE WARNING
Esri deprecated a pattern used in the JS API. This affects custom Studio Web components built with our SDK.
Good news, if your apps are built using Web Designer configuration and Workflow, you’re fine.
If you have custom SDK components, start migrating at 5.37, deprecated methods will stop working by February 2026
