# Which Problems Are Solved
For testing purposes, we modified the .reseaserc.js. The test relevant
changes are reverted.
# How the Problems Are Solved
- The test branch is removed from the branches array.
- The default releaseBodyTemplate value is used again.
# Additional Context
- Cleanup for #10956
# Which Problems Are Solved
This PR makes sure that the tarballs containing the API binary and the
standalone login are separately downloadable from the release pages
again.
# How the Problems Are Solved
Because the `Pack` workflow uploads a single GitHub artifact containing
all tarballs since #10571, we download this artifact so that it
correctly unpacks into the correct folder structure configured in
`.releaserc.js`
The changes are tested [with this action
run](https://github.com/eliobischof/zitadel/actions/runs/18745783976),
which [created this
release](https://github.com/eliobischof/zitadel/releases/tag/v1.0.0-release-archives.5).
# Additional Changes
- The term `standalone` is removed from the login tarball, as it should
be clear that it is a standalone build.
- The go builds and the login archiving are less verbose
- The pipelines go versions are pinned to *v1.25*, a minor above the
minimally required go version *v1.24.0* described in the go.mod file.
This makes sure that we build using newer patches for security and
performance.
# Additional Context
- The archives weren't published anymore since #10571
- Closes#10896

# Which Problems Are Solved
In order for golangci-lint to be able to compare what changed against
main, we have to check out main on branches.
If the pipeline runs on main, the branch can't be checked out twice and
the pipeline fails.
# How the Problems Are Solved
The step `Fetch main branch` in `lint_test_build` is only executed if
the workflow doesn't run on main, because in this case, the branch is
already checked out by the `Checkout Repository` step.
# Additional Changes
PRs can only be merged if `lint_test_buld` succeeds on an up-to-date
branch. When a PR is merged, it triggers a push event which runs
`lint_test_build` again on main with the same conditions. This is
obsolete. Pushes to main don't trigger the `lint_test_build` workflow
anymore.
# Additional Context
- Resolves
https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/actions/runs/18339015014/job/52229685065
# Which Problems Are Solved
By default, the login redirects in all cases from its
`NEXT_PUBLIC_BASE_PATH` to `NEXT_PUBLIC_BASE_PATH/loginname` now. This
is the expected behavior.
# How the Problems Are Solved
Deployments to Vercel use the `apps/login/.env` file for their defaults.
As the .env file had DEBUG=true, redirects from root to ./loginname were
disabled.
DEBUG=true is not needed anywhere, so it's deleted from the .env file.
# Which Problems Are Solved
The Login mirror repo https://github.com/zitadel/typescript is outdated.
With the DevX improvements done in #10571, forking the zitadel repo and
developing and deploying the Login became easy. This means, the
maintenance and mental overhead of syncing to the mirror repo is not
justified anymore.
This PR removes all references and mentions of the mirror repo, so we
can archive it.
# How the Problems Are Solved
- Fixed the *Deploy with Vercel* button to source the Login app from the
https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel repo.
- Renamed *Typescript Login UI* to *Login app*. This reflects the Nx
terminology in the Zitadel repo, as the Login is an Nx project in the
`apps` directory.
- Changed the typescript-repo route and configured a Vercel redirect
from `/docs/guides/integrate/login-ui/typescript-repo` to
`/docs/guides/integrate/login-ui/login-app`
# Additional Changes
- Removes the *Beta* status from the Login application
# Additional Context
- Depends on #10571 because it contains links to the updated
CONTRIBUTING.md as well as the updated docs build command in Vercel.json

# Which Problems Are Solved
When Postgres was not ready when the API was started, the API failed
immediately.
This made task orchestration hard, especially in a platform agnostic
way:
- The current health check in the Nx target `@zitadel/api:prod` uses the
timeout command, which is not installed on all platforms and behaves
unpredictably
- The current health check in the Nx target `@zitadel/api:prod` requires
the DB to have been started using `@zitadel/zitadel:db`
# How the Problems Are Solved
- Additional configuration option `Database.Postgres.AwaitInitialConn`
is added and defaults to *0m* for backwards compatibility.
- If a duration is configured, the API retries to ping the database
until it succeeds
- The API sleeps for a second between each ping.
- It emits an info-level log with the error on each try.
- When the configured duration times out before the ping is successful,
the error is returned and the command exits with a failure code.
- When the ping succeeds within the configured duration, the API goes on
with the init, setup or start phase.
# Additional Context
- Relates to internally reported problems with the current DB health
check command

# Which Problems Are Solved
Replaces Turbo by Nx and lays the foundation for the next CI
improvements. It enables using Nx Cloud to speed the up the pipelines
that affect any node package.
It streamlines the dev experience for frontend and backend developers by
providing the following commands:
| Task | Command | Notes |
|------|---------|--------|
| **Production** | `nx run PROJECT:prod` | Production server |
| **Develop** | `nx run PROJECT:dev` | Hot reloading development server
|
| **Test** | `nx run PROJECT:test` | Run all tests |
| **Lint** | `nx run PROJECT:lint` | Check code style |
| **Lint Fix** | `nx run PROJECT:lint-fix` | Auto-fix style issues |
The following values can be used for PROJECT:
- @zitadel/zitadel (root commands)
- @zitadel/api,
- @zitadel/login,
- @zitadel/console,
- @zitadel/docs,
- @zitadel/client
- @zitadel/proto
The project names and folders are streamlined:
| Old Folder | New Folder |
| --- | --- |
| ./e2e | ./tests/functional-ui |
| ./load-test | ./benchmark |
| ./build/zitadel | ./apps/api |
| ./console | ./apps/console (postponed so the PR is reviewable) |
Also, all references to the TypeScript repo are removed so we can
archive it.
# How the Problems Are Solved
- Ran `npx nx@latest init`
- Replaced all turbo.json by project.json and fixed the target configs
- Removed Turbo dependency
- All JavaScript related code affected by a PRs changes is
quality-checked using the `nx affected` command
- We move PR checks that are runnable using Nx into the `check`
workflow. For workflows where we don't use Nx, yet, we restore
previously built dependency artifacts from Nx.
- We only use a single and easy to understand dev container
- The CONTRIBUTING.md is streamlined
- The setup with a generated client pat is orchestrated with Nx
- Everything related to the TypeScript repo is updated or removed. A
**Deploy with Vercel** button is added to the docs and the
CONTRIBUTING.md.
# Additional Changes
- NPM package names have a consistent pattern.
- Docker bake is removed. The login container is built and released like
the core container.
- The integration tests build the login container before running, so
they don't rely on the login container action anymore. This fixes
consistently failing checks on PRs from forks.
- The docs build in GitHub actions is removed, as we already build on
Vercel.
# Additional Context
- Internal discussion:

# Which Problems Are Solved
The PR ensures that the `console_dependencies` Make recipe installs all
dependencies needed to build the console. This makes for example `make
compile` work again.
# How the Problems Are Solved

from the package.json to the pnpm-workspace.yaml.
- The syntax for selecting a pnpm package and its workspace dependencies
is fixed.

# Which Problems Are Solved
The login integration action page load in the idp test times out
sometimes.
Also, the debug steps fail, which cause confusion about why the pipeline
check failed.
# How the Problems Are Solved
- We retry failed tests twice, which should alleviate flakiness because
of eventual consistency. This is fine for now, because typically, a user
doesn't send input as fast as the tests do.
- The compose file path is fixed.
- ~~As suggested in the cypress error logs, we increase the
pageLoadTimeout.~~ The increased pageLoadTimeout didn't help.

# Which Problems Are Solved
- The proxy examples are updated so a self-hosted login container is
deployed.
- The proxies are configured to direct traffic at /ui/v2/login to it.
# How the Problems Are Solved
The base compose file is extended by correctly configured login
containers for all three scenarios
- TLS disabled
- External TLS
- TLS Enabled
The proxy always connects to the login via HTTP.
# Additional Changes
- All proxies have the TLS disabled mode outcommented, because the login
container has state problems, maybe because it needs secure cookies. The
need for this is unclear, so we avoid creating a follow-up issue.
- The httpd external mode is incommented, as gRPC connections work with
this configuration.
- *ZITADEL* is replaced by *Zitadel*

# Additional Context
- Partially Closes#10016
# Which Problems Are Solved
Login integration tests are not executed in the pipeline
# How the Problems Are Solved
The login integration tests are fixed and added as a pipeline workflow.
It tests against the built login docker image.
On pipeline failures, developers are guided on how to fix them using a
dev container configured for this purpose.
# Additional Changes
- email domains are replaced by example.com. In case the tests were
accidentally run against a cloud instance, it wouldn't cause bounces.
- pnpm is upgraded, because the --filter argument doesn't work for the
install command on the old version.
- The login Dockerfile is optimized for docker image builds
# Additional Changes From Review for
https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/pull/10305
These changes were requested from @peintnermax
- The base dev container starts without any services besides the
database and the dev container itself
- CONTRIBUTING.md is restructured
- To reproduce pipeline checks, only the devcontainer CLI and Docker are
needed. This is described in the CONTRIBUTING.md
- The convenience npm script "generate" is added
# Additional Context
- Follow-up for PR https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/pull/10305
- Base for https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/issues/10277
# Which Problems Are Solved
The load balancing compose example uses a dedicated service
`use-new-login` that gives the set up machine user the login role and
requires the v2 login using an instance feature. This is cumbersome and
unnecessary.
# How the Problems Are Solved
- A login client machine user is set up and the token is passed to the
login by using the environment variable ZITADEL_SERVICE_USER_TOKEN_FILE.
- The unnecessary service is removed
# Additional Changes
- Uses the static `MasterkeyNeedsToHave32Characters` master key.
- The load balancing example replaces the previous Docker Compose
example.
- The login uses `network_mode: service:zitadel` so it can access the
zitadel service in the docker network via localhost.
- Uses the docker provider for Traefik.
# Additional Context
- Complements https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/pull/9496
- Partially closes https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/issues/10016
- When we release, we should update the image tags to latest, for
example with [this PR](https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/pull/10249).

# Which Problems Are Solved
The broken login image is fixed.
# How the Problems Are Solved
The most important learnings from
https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/pull/10318 are applied:
- Path in entrypoint is fixed: `exec node /runtime/apps/login/server.js`
- .dockerignore is updated so CSS styles are built into the image
- `source: .` is passed to the docker-bake action. Without this,
docker-bake builds from a remote context, which seems to be slow and not
updated on new PR commits. Looks like the bake action uploads an
artifact that [conflicts with the compile
workflow](https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/actions/runs/16620417216/job/47023478437).
Therefore, a pattern is added to the compile workflow so only relevant
artifacts are selected.

# Additional Context
- Follows up on #10343
# Which Problems Are Solved
Since #10305 we have the following two files in `/apps/login`
- /apps/login/README.md
- /apps/login/readme.md
This confused case insensitive file systems, causing strange Git
behavior.
# How the Problems Are Solved
We remove the obsolete /apps/login/README.md file.
# Which Problems Are Solved
- The previous monorepo in monorepo structure for the login app and its
related packages was fragmented, complicated and buggy.
- The process for building and testing the login container was
inconsistent between local development and CI.
- Lack of clear documentation as well as easy and reliable ways for
non-frontend developers to reproduce and fix failing PR checks locally.
# How the Problems Are Solved
- Consolidated the login app and its related npm packages by moving the
main package to `apps/login/apps/login` and merging
`apps/login/packages/integration` and `apps/login/packages/acceptance`
into the main `apps/login` package.
- Migrated from Docker Compose-based test setups to dev container-based
setups, adding support for multiple dev container configurations:
- `.devcontainer/base`
- `.devcontainer/turbo-lint-unit`
- `.devcontainer/turbo-lint-unit-debug`
- `.devcontainer/login-integration`
- `.devcontainer/login-integration-debug`
- Added npm scripts to run the new dev container setups, enabling exact
reproduction of GitHub PR checks locally, and updated the pipeline to
use these containers.
- Cleaned up Dockerfiles and docker-bake.hcl files to only build the
production image for the login app.
- Cleaned up compose files to focus on dev environments in dev
containers.
- Updated `CONTRIBUTING.md` with guidance on running and debugging PR
checks locally using the new dev container approach.
- Introduced separate Dockerfiles for the login app to distinguish
between using published client packages and building clients from local
protos.
- Ensured the login container is always built in the pipeline for use in
integration and acceptance tests.
- Updated Makefile and GitHub Actions workflows to use
`--frozen-lockfile` for installing pnpm packages, ensuring reproducible
installs.
- Disabled GitHub release creation by the changeset action.
- Refactored the `/build` directory structure for clarity and
maintainability.
- Added a `clean` command to `docks/package.json`.
- Experimentally added `knip` to the `zitadel-client` package for
improved linting of dependencies and exports.
# Additional Changes
- Fixed Makefile commands for consistency and reliability.
- Improved the structure and clarity of the `/build` directory to
support seamless integration of the login build.
- Enhanced documentation and developer experience for running and
debugging CI checks locally.
# Additional Context
- See updated `CONTRIBUTING.md` for new local development and debugging
instructions.
- These changes are a prerequisite for further improvements to the CI
pipeline and local development workflow.
- Closes#10276
# Which Problems Are Solved
- Dependabot creates noisy PRs to the mirror repo zitadel/typescript.
# How the Problems Are Solved

the README.md
- Dependabot for the login [is already enabled in the zitadel
repo](https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/blob/main/.github/dependabot.yml#L25-L37).

# How the Problems Are Solved
- The GitHub secret DEPOT_TOKEN is statically passed as env variable to
the steps that use the depot CLI, as described

# Which Problems Are Solved
When changes are pulled or pushed from or to a login repository, they
can't be merged to zitadel, because the commit histories differ.
# How the Problems Are Solved
Changed the commands to allow diverging commit histories.
Pulling takes a lot of commits into the zitadel repo branch like this.
This is fine, as we anyway squash-merge PRs to a single commit.
So we don't care about a branches commit history.
# Additional Changes
Added an exception to the close-pr.yml workflow so sync PRs are not
auto-closed.

# Which Problems Are Solved
This pull request addresses a significant gap in the user service v2
API, which currently lacks methods for managing machine users.
# How the Problems Are Solved
This PR adds new API endpoints to the user service v2 to manage machine
users including their secret, keys and personal access tokens.
Additionally, there's now a CreateUser and UpdateUser endpoints which
allow to create either a human or machine user and update them. The
existing `CreateHumanUser` endpoint has been deprecated along the
corresponding management service endpoints. For details check the
additional context section.

# Which Problems Are Solved
When users are removed, their auth factors stay in the projection. This
data inconsistency is visible if a removed user is recreated with the
same ID. In such a case, the login UI and the query API methods show the
removed users auth methods. This is unexpected behavior.
The old users auth methods are not usable to log in and they are not
found by the command side. This is expected behavior.
# How the Problems Are Solved
The auth factors projection reduces the user removed event by deleting
all factors.
# Additional Context
- Reported by support request
- requires backport to 2.x and 3.x
# Which Problems Are Solved
Currently, users can't delete themselves using the V2 RemoveUser API
because of the redunant API middleware permission check.
On main, using a machine user PAT to delete the same machine user:
```bash
grpcurl -plaintext -H "Authorization: Bearer ${ZITADEL_ACCESS_TOKEN}" -d '{"userId": "318838604669387137"}' localhost:8080 zitadel.user.v2.UserService.DeleteUser

The middleware permission check is disabled and the
domain.PermissionCheck is used exclusively.

can omit redundant permission checks by passing nil while APIs without
middleware permission checks can pass one to the command.

# Which Problems Are Solved
The sorting column of action targets and executions defaults to the ID
column instead of the creation date column.
This is only relevant, if the sorting column is explicitly passed as
unspecified.
If the sorting column is not passed, it correctly defaults to the
creation date.
```bash
# ❌ Sorts by ID
grpcurl -plaintext -H "Authorization: Bearer ${ZITADEL_ACCESS_TOKEN}" -d '{"sortingColumn": "TARGET_FIELD_NAME_UNSPECIFIED"}' localhost:8080 zitadel.action.v2beta.ActionService.ListTargets
# ❌ Sorts by ID
grpcurl -plaintext -H "Authorization: Bearer ${ZITADEL_ACCESS_TOKEN}" -d '{"sortingColumn": 0}' localhost:8080 zitadel.action.v2beta.ActionService.ListTargets
# ✅ Sorts by creation date
grpcurl -plaintext -H "Authorization: Bearer ${ZITADEL_ACCESS_TOKEN}" localhost:8080 zitadel.action.v2beta.ActionService.ListTargets
```
# How the Problems Are Solved
`action.TargetFieldName_TARGET_FIELD_NAME_UNSPECIFIED` maps to the
sorting column `query.TargetColumnCreationDate`.
# Additional Context
As IDs are also generated in ascending, like creation dates, the the bug
probably only causes unexpected behavior for cases, where the ID is
specified during target or execution creation. This is currently not
supported, so this bug probably has no impact at all. It doesn't need to
be backported.

# Which Problems Are Solved
In some docs pages, we propose to generate a Zitadel masterkey using the
command `tr -dc A-Za-z0-9 </dev/urandom | head -c 32`. However, this
fails on some systems/locations with the error message `tr: Illegal byte
sequence`.
# How the Problems Are Solved
We replace the command by this more portable variant: `LC_ALL=C tr -dc
'[:graph:]' </dev/urandom | head -c 32`
# Additional Changes
None
# Additional Context
Found by @fcoppede while testing #9496. The new command works for him.
# Which Problems Are Solved
The docs overview pages and navs don't visually distinguish between
deprecated and GA APIs.
This makes it hard to find the right methods for the job already.
As we are implementing the resource API and continously deprecate
obsolete APIs, this only gets worse.
# How the Problems Are Solved
The UI items in docs overview pages are striked through and pushed to
the bottom of the list.
This applies to side navs as well as card lists.
For example, [see management user
methods](https://docs-git-strikethrough-deprecated-apis-zitadel.vercel.app/docs/apis/resources/mgmt/users):

A method is considered deprecated if it has this option set in the
protos rpc definition:
```protobuf
option (grpc.gateway.protoc_gen_openapiv2.options.openapiv2_operation) = {
deprecated: true;
}
```

# Which Problems Are Solved
Dependabot creates a PR for each individual dependency update. This is
noisy and toil.
# How the Problems Are Solved
The easily mergable updates are grouped into fewer PRs.
Major updates and security updates are not grouped, as they might need
special attention.
For the github-actions updates, also the major updates are grouped, as
we have immediate and good enough feedback from the pipeline if a new
major doesn't work.
# Additional Changes
The e2e dependencies are also auto-updated.
# Additional Context
- We aggreed on grouping the dependabot PRs in todays Scrum daily.
- I don't know how to test the config. We might just have to merge it
and look how it goes 🤷♂️
# Which Problems Are Solved
The Kubernetes and Knative deployment docs suggest to depend on
CockroachDB installations even though we sunset the CockroachDB support
with the upcoming major version. This can be annoying for users who
create new environments using CockroachDB.
# How the Problems Are Solved
- The Kubernetes deployment is removed and points to examples in the
chart repo directy. This removes redundancies that are prone to getting
outdated without notice.
- The Knative deployment uses commands to deploy a PostgreSQL
StatefulSet instead of a CockroachDB StatefulSet. The DB command from
the Knative Tutorial is used, as users are likely to be familiar with
the tutorials configuration already. The static Kubernetes YAML files
for the DB as well as for the Zitadel Knative service are removed
altogether, as they are prone to getting outdated without notice and
don't serve any purpose.
# Additional Changes
- The outdated and boring video guide for Knative is removed.
- The Knative configuration is changed, so the first-time login becomes
easier which improves DevX.
- The current docker compose file doesn't work, this PR fixes it and
upgrades the used Postgres to v17.
# Additional Context
- Closes https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel-charts/issues/322

# Which Problems Are Solved
The reverse proxy docs have too many links to the third party proxy
provider. This is noisy and might result in unintentional redirects.

# How the Problems Are Solved
The link to the proxy provider is only shown on the first occurence of
the provider name instead of all occurences.
# Which Problems Are Solved
We configured the default base URL for the hosted v2 login to
`/ui/v2/login`. However, the docs still instruct readers to configure
the URL explicitly. This is unneccesary mental overhead and a risk of
self-DOS due to typos.
# How the Problems Are Solved
The docs instruct readers to not configure the base URL in order to use
the default.

# Which Problems Are Solved
The console has no information about where and how to send PostHog
events.
# How the Problems Are Solved
A PostHog API URL and token are passed through as plain text from the
Zitadel runtime config to the environment.json. By default, no values
are configured and the keys in the environment.json are omitted.

# Which Problems Are Solved
Commands for installing compose stacks with reverse proxies don't work.
# How the Problems Are Solved
- The `docker compose up` commands are fixed by specifying all necessary
services to spin up. This is obviously not (or not with all docker
compose versions) resolved by the dependencies declarations.
- The initial postgres admin username is postgres.
- Fix postgres health check to succeed before the init job created the
DB.
- A hint tells the user to install the grpcurl binary.
# Additional Changes
- Passing `--wait` to `docker compose up` doesn't require us to sleep
for exactly three seconds.
- It looks to me like the order of the depends_on declaration for
zitadel matters, but I don't understand why. I changed it so that it's
for sure correct.
- Silenced some command outputs
- Removed the version property from all compose files to avoid the
following warning
```
WARN[0000] /tmp/caddy-example/docker-compose-base.yaml: the attribute `version` is obsolete, it will be ignored, please remove it to avoid potential confusion
```
# Additional Context
- Closes https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/issues/9115
This is the easiest way to test the updated docs:
```bash
# Use this PR branches files:
export ZITADEL_CONFIG_FILES=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zitadel/zitadel/refs/heads/fix-reverse-proxy-guides/docs/docs/self-hosting/manage/reverseproxy
```
The rest of the commands as described in
https://docs-git-fix-reverse-proxy-guides-zitadel.vercel.app/docs/self-hosting/manage/reverseproxy/caddy

# Which Problems Are Solved
1. Postgres spams FATAL: role "root" does not exist as mentioned in
https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/discussions/7832 (even with -U)
2. The compose commands for a ZITADEL deployment with initial service
account key don't work out-of-the box with a non-root user, because
docker creates non-existing directories to bind-mount with root
ownership.

# How the Problems Are Solved
1. The branch bases on https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/pull/8826. The
env vars are cleaned up and prettified across compose files.
2. A command is added to the docs that creates the directory with the
current users permission. The ZITADEL container runs with the current
users ID.

# Which Problems Are Solved
Adding a SAML IDPs with an empty metadata XML and URL leads to failed
projection events. The main IDP template projection succeeds, but the
subtable projection for SAML template fails, because the metadata field
is not nullable in that table. The SAML IDP shows up in list queries,
because the list method only queries the main template projection.
However, getting a SAML IDP created without metadata by ID misses the
SAML specific IDP data.
# How the Problems Are Solved
- The command for adding a SAML IDP properly ensures that non-empty
metadata is either given by XML or resolved by URL.
- The console doesn't send requests with empty metadata anymore. This
works by explicitly setting a single oneof option for either XML or URL
and emptying the other one.

# Which Problems Are Solved
The Host header reaching ZITADEL must be the same like it is requested

# Which Problems Are Solved
Alpha APIs are not available accessible using REST.
# How the Problems Are Solved
The base_path property for the swagger definition has nothing to do with
the reverse proxy generation. Reusing it and omitting its segments in
the individual methods leads to a wrong path mapping. To fix this, the
full paths are added to all the GW mappings.
# Additional Context

threads, or other sources with more context.

# Which Problems Are Solved
Links to the logging config in the github repo point to the wrong line
numbers. When they are fixed, it is highly likely that they get outdated
again very fast.
# How the Problems Are Solved
The logging relevant config section is copied to the docs page.
This copy is less likely to get outdated very fast, because the
`LogStore` sections content is not expected to change a lot but its
position is.
# Additional Changes
Adds the header *Why ZITADEL does not write logs to files*
# Additional Context
Reported by a customer in a support request.
# Which Problems Are Solved
The navigation in the console default settings is flaky. Sometimes it
arbitrarily jumps to the organizations page.
# How the Problems Are Solved
The lifecycle hooks were extended to react differently to changes that
come from 'outside' and from the component itself.
# Additional Changes
The e2e tests are supposed to run against Firefox and Chrome. However
they are run twice against Electon. Fixing this revealed the console
navigation flakiness that was less visible on Electron.
The following issues are also fixed with this PR to reduce flakiness in
e2e tests.
- The custom command in the pipeline is removed from the e2e action
step, so the browser argument is respected.
- The npm packages of the e2e tests are updated to their latest version.
- Notification tests run against a clean state now so they don't depend
on each other anymore. This resolved some flakiness and improved
debuggability of the tests.
- E2E page load timeout is increased, reducing flakiness.
- E2E tests wait on some elements to be enabled before they interact
with them, reducing flakiness.
# Additional Context
- Closes#8404
- Follow-up: https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/issues/8471
The e2e tests ran three times in a row successfully in the pipeline
against both browsers.

# Which Problems Are Solved
The current v3alpha actions APIs don't exactly adhere to the [new
resources API
design](https://zitadel.com/docs/apis/v3#standard-resources).
# How the Problems Are Solved
- **Improved ID access**: The aggregate ID is added to the resource
details object, so accessing resource IDs and constructing proto
messages for resources is easier
- **Explicit Instances**: Optionally, the instance can be explicitly
given in each request
- **Pagination**: A default search limit and a max search limit are
added to the defaults.yaml. They apply to the new v3 APIs (currently
only actions). The search query defaults are changed to ascending by
creation date, because this makes the pagination results the most
deterministic. The creation date is also added to the object details.
The bug with updated creation dates is fixed for executions and targets.
- **Removed Sequences**: Removed Sequence from object details and
ProcessedSequence from search details
# Additional Changes
Object details IDs are checked in unit test only if an empty ID is
expected. Centralizing the details check also makes this internal object
more flexible for future evolutions.
# Additional Context
- Closes#8169
- Depends on https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/pull/8225

# Which Problems Are Solved
OIDC redirects have wrong headers
# How the Problems Are Solved
This is fixed with https://github.com/zitadel/oidc/pull/632. This change
updates the OIDC lib to a fixed version.
# Which Problems Are Solved
The current v3alpha actions APIs don't exactly adhere to the [new
resources API
design](https://zitadel.com/docs/apis/v3#standard-resources).
# How the Problems Are Solved
- **Breaking**: The current v3alpha actions APIs are removed. This is
breaking.
- **Resource Namespace**: New v3alpha actions APIs for targets and
executions are added under the namespace /resources.
- **Feature Flag**: New v3alpha actions APIs still have to be activated
using the actions feature flag
- **Reduced Executions Overhead**: Executions are managed similar to
settings according to the new API design: an empty list of targets
basically makes an execution a Noop. So a single method, SetExecution is
enough to cover all use cases. Noop executions are not returned in
future search requests.
- **Compatibility**: The executions created with previous v3alpha APIs
are still available to be managed with the new executions API.
# Additional Changes
- Removed integration tests which test executions but rely on readable
targets. They are added again with #8169
# Additional Context
Closes#8168
# Which Problems Are Solved
The default terms of service and privacy policy links are applied to all

includes `http_server_return_code_counter` is created for the gRPC
gateway
