# What's New With 3.0.0

February 12, 2021

## Compatibility Updates

In this major release we have two issues that are not backward compatible:

### `asQuery` now false

All properties and arguments that received the `asQuery` argument are now defaulted to false. Meaning arrays of objects/structs is now the default instead of query objects.  If you want to go back to queries, then make sure you add the `asQuery : true` to the method calls.

### cbValidation => cbi18n v2 Upgrade

Our supporting modules have been also upgraded to their major versions mostly to support cbi18n v2. <https://coldbox-i18n.ortusbooks.com/intro/release-history/whats-new-with-2.0.0>

If you are using localization features with cborm then you must read the compat guide for cbi18n v2.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://coldbox-orm.ortusbooks.com/v3.x/intro/release-history/whats-new-with-3.0.0.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
