 ## [Unreleased]
+
+## v1.23.0
+
+As part of the 1.23.0 release, the legacy `api/v1` implementation has been removed from the _experimental_ Summary service and Meet has been migrated to the new `api/v2`.
+
+**To avoid a breaking change, the Meet backend continues to use the Summary service's v1-compatible API format by default (`SUMMARY_SERVICE_VERSION` setting defaults to `1`).**
+
+If you are deploying both Meet and Summary from this repository, you must configure the Meet backend to use the v2 API by setting the following environment variable `SUMMARY_SERVICE_VERSION=2`.
+
+If you are upgrading only the Meet deployment while keeping an older Summary v1 compatible deployment, no action is required, as the v1-compatible API remains the default.
+
+Note that we plan on removing the legacy `v1` summary compatibility in a future major version. If you have your own implementation for the summary service, we recommend updating its API contract and setting `SUMMARY_SERVICE_VERSION=2`.
