Click to show BC changes

1. BC Change in APIv2

Before: A field FarmRole.networking.networks was optional for CREATE / UPDATE Farm Roles or Farm Templates.

After: A field FarmRole.networking.networks is mandatory for the Openstack platform for CREATE / UPDATE Farm Roles or Farm Templates.

2. BC Change in APIv2

Role Object. Role.deprecated has been replaced with inherited object with the information about deprecation. The field Role.deprecated became read only.

Before:

     {
	    "deprecated": true
     }

After:

    {
	    "deprecated": {
		  "deprecated": "2017-12-07T09:52:37Z",
		  "replacement": {
			"id": 41402
		  }
	    }      
    }

It is impossible to deprecate a Role through the PATCH /api/v1beta0/user/envId/roles/roleId/ action.

A new POST /api/v1beta0/user/envId/roles/roleId/actions/deprecate action must be used instead.
