==== {es} API key privileges
If you use an API key to create another API key (sometimes called a
_derived key_), its behavior is impacted by the fix for
https://www.elastic.co/community/security[CVE-2020-7009].
When you make a request to create API keys, you can specify an expiration and
privileges for the API key. Previously, when you created a derived key, it had
no privileges. This behavior disregarded any privileges that you specified in
the {ref}/security-api-create-api-key.html[create API key API].
As of 7.6.2, this behavior changes. To create a derived key, you must explicitly
specify a role descriptor with no privileges:
[source,js]
----
...
"role_descriptors": {
"no-privilege": {
}
}
...

==== Deprecation of sparse vector fields
The `sparse_vector` field type has been deprecated and will be removed in 8.0.
We have not seen much interest in this experimental field type, and don't see
a clear use case as it's currently designed. If you have feedback or
suggestions around sparse vector functionality, please let us know through
GitHub or the 'discuss' forums.
[discrete]
==== Update to vector function signatures
The vector functions of the form `function(query, doc['field'])` are
deprecated, and the form `function(query, 'field')` should be used instead.
For example, `cosineSimilarity(query, doc['field'])` is replaced by
`cosineSimilarity(query, 'field')`.
[discrete]
==== Disallow use of the `nGram` and `edgeNGram` tokenizer names
The `nGram` and `edgeNGram` tokenizer names haven been deprecated with 7.6.
Mappings for indices created after 7.6 will continue to work but emit a
deprecation warning. The tokenizer name should be changed to the fully
equivalent `ngram` or `edge_ngram` names for new indices and in index
templates.
