-# Experimental Features API
-
-This API allows a server administrator to enable or disable some experimental features on a per-user
-basis. The currently supported features are: 
-- [MSC3026](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/3026): busy 
-presence state enabled
-- [MSC3881](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/3881): enable remotely toggling push notifications 
-for another client 
-- [MSC3967](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/3967): do not require
-UIA when first uploading cross-signing keys. 
-
-
-To use it, you will need to authenticate by providing an `access_token`
-for a server admin: see [Admin API](../usage/administration/admin_api/).
-
-## Enabling/Disabling Features
-
-This API allows a server administrator to enable experimental features for a given user. The request must 
-provide a body containing the user id and listing the features to enable/disable in the following format:
-```json
-{
-   "features": {
-      "msc3026":true,
-      "msc3881":true
-   }
-}
-```
-where true is  used to enable the feature, and false is used to disable the feature.
-
-
-The API is:
-
-```
-PUT /_synapse/admin/v1/experimental_features/<user_id>
-```
-
-## Listing Enabled Features
- 
-To list which features are enabled/disabled for a given user send a request to the following API:
-
-```
-GET /_synapse/admin/v1/experimental_features/<user_id>
-```
-
-It will return a list of possible features and indicate whether they are enabled or disabled for the
-user like so:
-```json
-{

-      "msc3026": true,
-      "msc3881": false,

+
+ * Any new boolean column must be added to the `BOOLEAN_COLUMNS` list in

+
+   ```python

-# Upgrading to v1.90.0
-
-## App service query parameter authorization is now a configuration option
-
-Synapse v1.81.0 deprecated application service authorization via query parameters as this is
-considered insecure - and from Synapse v1.71.0 forwards the application service token has also been sent via 
-[the `Authorization` header](https://spec.matrix.org/v1.6/application-service-api/#authorization)], making the insecure
-query parameter authorization redundant. Since removing the ability to continue to use query parameters could break 
-backwards compatibility it has now been put behind a configuration option, `use_appservice_legacy_authorization`.  
-This option defaults to false, but can be activated by adding 
-```yaml
-use_appservice_legacy_authorization: true 
-```
-to your configuration.
-
-# Upgrading to v1.89.0
-
-## Removal of unspecced `user` property for `/register`
-
-Application services can no longer call `/register` with a `user` property to create new users.
-The standard `username` property should be used instead. See the
-[Application Service specification](https://spec.matrix.org/v1.7/application-service-api/#server-admin-style-permissions)
-for more information.
-
-# Upgrading to v1.88.0
-
-## Minimum supported Python version
-
-The minimum supported Python version has been increased from v3.7 to v3.8.
-You will need Python 3.8 to run Synapse v1.88.0 (due out July 18th, 2023).
-
-If you use current versions of the Matrix.org-distributed Debian
-packages or Docker images, no action is required.
-
-## Removal of `worker_replication_*` settings
-
-As mentioned previously in [Upgrading to v1.84.0](#upgrading-to-v1840), the following deprecated settings
-are being removed in this release of Synapse:
-
-* [`worker_replication_host`](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/v1.86/usage/configuration/config_documentation.html#worker_replication_host)
-* [`worker_replication_http_port`](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/v1.86/usage/configuration/config_documentation.html#worker_replication_http_port)
-* [`worker_replication_http_tls`](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/v1.86/usage/configuration/config_documentation.html#worker_replication_http_tls)
-
-Please ensure that you have migrated to using `main` on your shared configuration's `instance_map`
-(or create one if necessary). This is required if you have ***any*** workers at all;
-administrators of single-process (monolith) installations don't need to do anything.

-date.
-
-
-# Upgrading to v1.85.0
-
-## Application service registration with "user" property deprecation
-
-Application services should ensure they call the `/register` endpoint with a
-`username` property. The legacy `user` property is considered deprecated and
-should no longer be included.
-
-A future version of Synapse (v1.88.0 or later) will remove support for legacy
-application service login.
-

-
-When using workers,
-
-* `worker_replication_host`
-* `worker_replication_http_port`
-* `worker_replication_http_tls`
- 
-should now be removed from individual worker YAML configurations and the main process should instead be added to the `instance_map`
-in the shared YAML configuration, using the name `main`.
-
-The old `worker_replication_*` settings are now considered deprecated and are expected to be removed in Synapse v1.88.0.

-## Application service path & authentication deprecations
-
-Synapse now attempts the versioned appservice paths before falling back to the
-[legacy paths](https://spec.matrix.org/v1.6/application-service-api/#legacy-routes).
-Usage of the legacy routes should be considered deprecated.
-
-Additionally, Synapse has supported sending the application service access token
-via [the `Authorization` header](https://spec.matrix.org/v1.6/application-service-api/#authorization)
-since v1.70.0. For backwards compatibility it is *also* sent as the `access_token`
-query parameter. This is insecure and should be considered deprecated.
-
-A future version of Synapse (v1.88.0 or later) will remove support for legacy
-application service routes and query parameter authorization.
-
-# Upgrading to v1.80.0

-## Reporting events error code change

-Before this update, the
-[`POST /_matrix/client/v3/rooms/{roomId}/report/{eventId}`](https://spec.matrix.org/v1.6/client-server-api/#post_matrixclientv3roomsroomidreporteventid)
-endpoint would return a `403` if a user attempted to report an event that they did not have access to.
-This endpoint will now return a `404` in this case instead.
-
-Clients that implement event reporting should check that their error handling code will handle this
-change.

-# A Nix flake that sets up a complete Synapse development environment. Dependencies
-# for the SyTest (https://github.com/matrix-org/sytest) and Complement
-# (https://github.com/matrix-org/complement) Matrix homeserver test suites are also
-# installed automatically.
-#
-# You must have already installed Nix (https://nixos.org) on your system to use this.
-# Nix can be installed on Linux or MacOS; NixOS is not required. Windows is not
-# directly supported, but Nix can be installed inside of WSL2 or even Docker
-# containers. Please refer to https://nixos.org/download for details.
-#
-# You must also enable support for flakes in Nix. See the following for how to
-# do so permanently: https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Flakes#Enable_flakes
-#
-# Be warned: you'll need over 3.75 GB of free space to download all the dependencies.
-#
-# Usage:
-#
-# With Nix installed, navigate to the directory containing this flake and run
-# `nix develop --impure`. The `--impure` is necessary in order to store state
-# locally from "services", such as PostgreSQL and Redis.
-#
-# You should now be dropped into a new shell with all programs and dependencies
-# availabile to you!
-#
-# You can start up pre-configured local Synapse, PostgreSQL and Redis instances by
-# running: `devenv up`. To stop them, use Ctrl-C.
-#
-# All state (the venv, postgres and redis data and config) are stored in
-# .devenv/state. Deleting a file from here and then re-entering the shell
-# will recreate these files from scratch.
-#
-# You can exit the development shell by typing `exit`, or using Ctrl-D.
-#
-# If you would like this development environment to activate automatically
-# upon entering this directory in your terminal, first install `direnv`
-# (https://direnv.net/). Then run `echo 'use flake . --impure' >> .envrc` at
-# the root of the Synapse repo. Finally, run `direnv allow .` to allow the
-# contents of '.envrc' to run every time you enter this directory. Voilà!
