We are changing the behavior of <Dial> for accounts which have enabled Enhanced Programmable SIP Features. This could represent a breaking change for some call flows. If your account has not enabled Enhanced Programmable SIP Features, this does not represent a change.
The changes are:
This change brings Enhanced Programmable SIP Feature enabled accounts behavior in alignment with the behavior of TwiML for non-enabled accounts.
For more information about Enhanced Programmable SIP features, see our blog post and the TwiML changelog.

Twilio is adding functionality to the Programmable Voice <Dial> verb specific to SIP Connectivity. The new functionality may affect your existing applications. The deadline to account for these changes in your application code is 31 July 2021.
In most cases, your existing code will continue to function; however, there are some functional improvements and behavioral changes which could possibly impact your application. We recommend testing your existing application code in dev or staging environments before 31 July 2021 to identify any potential impacts..
The new features can be enabled on the Programmable Voice Settings page. This will activate the new features on an account-wide level. These features will be applied to all accounts after 31 July 2021.
We are planning to enable this new feature set across all Twilio accounts on 31 July 2021, and will allow you enough time to adjust your applications to use this new functionality, and fully test these changes. As always, Twilio will always be there to help you through this process, if you need assistance, or run into problems.
For more information see the TwiML changelog.

To improve discoverability, a new SMS Commands API has been introduced for exchanging machine-to-machine SMS between your applications and your Super SIMs. This new API replaces the existing Commands API. The functionality offered by the SMS Commands and Commands APIs is almost identical with some minor changes to property names.
The Commands API will be removed before Super SIM is released to General Availability in the near future. Please plan to migrate your integrations to use the new SMS Commands API as soon as possible.

You can now integrate Twilio SendGrid with identity and access management platforms that support SAML 2.0 such as Okta, Duo, and Microsoft Azure. Twilio SendGrid SSO integration allows you to securely and centrally manage account permissions, including password requirements, multi-factor authentication, and employee offboarding. Twilio SendGrid SSO provides access to those who need it by mapping new Twilio SendGrid Teammates to users in your SSO Identity Provider (IdP). Please note that each SSO user can access only one account or subuser during the Public Beta.
Visit our documentation for more information on how to access and manage SSO permissions.

This release Flex UI and WebChat UI upgrades Browser Notifications and Markdown to Generally Available. These features improve agent efficiency and customer experience for messaging interactions.
Markdown support allows agents to format Web Chat messages. This can improve the readability of longer messages. Using bold text, italics, or bulleted lists can create structure and emphasis in your agents' messages, and ensure that customers read and understand the message correctly.
Browser notifications help agents respond to tasks that require their attention in a timely manner and not miss any customer interaction when they are not focused on Flex.
To take advantage of these features, visit Flex settings to enable them for your account.
Other notable changes in Flex UI 1.26:

The Plugins Dashboard now enables Flex admins to delete legacy builds of plugins that you have started migrating to the Plugins CLI. This step is necessary to complete a migration, and it ensures you can disable a plugin without accidentally serving the legacy build to your users. Legacy builds are plugins that were added to Twilio Assets prior to the Plugins CLI.
Admins can access the Plugins Dashboard via the Admin UI. Refer to our docs for more details.
