([#339](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/339))
- `sqlite-utils memory` now has a `--flatten` option for [flattening nested JSON objects](https://sqlite-utils.datasette.io/en/stable/cli.html#cli-inserting-data-flatten) into separate columns, consistent with `sqlite-utils insert`. ([#332](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/332))
- `table.create_index(..., find_unique_name=True)` parameter, which finds an available name for the created index even if the default name has already been taken. This means that `index-foreign-keys` will work even if one of the indexes it tries to create clashes with an existing index name. ([#335](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/335))
- Added `py.typed` to the module, so [mypy](http://mypy-lang.org/) should now correctly pick up the type annotations. Thanks, Andreas Longo. ([#331](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/331))

- `table.create()` (see [Explicitly creating a table](https://sqlite-utils.datasette.io/en/stable/python-api.html#python-api-explicit-create)) now handles `dict`, `list` and `tuple` types, mapping them to `TEXT` columns in SQLite so that they can be stored encoded as JSON. ([#338](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/338))
- Inserted data with square braces in the column names (for example a CSV file containing a `item[price]`) column now have the braces converted to underscores: `item_price_`. Previously such columns would be rejected with an error. ([#329](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/329))

Previously, API tokens have only been supported by installing additional plugins.

This is very much a preview: expect many more backwards incompatible API changes prior to the full 1.0 release.

Feedback enthusiastically welcomed, either through [issue comments](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1850) or via the [Datasette Discord](https://datasette.io/discord) community.

### Signed API tokens

- New `/-/create-token` page allowing authenticated users to create signed API tokens that can act on their behalf, see [API Tokens](https://docs.datasette.io/en/1.0-dev/authentication.html#createtokenview). ([#1852](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1852))

See [Datasette 1.0a2: Upserts and finely grained permissions](https://simonwillison.net/2022/Dec/15/datasette-1a2/) for an extended, annotated version of these release notes.

- New `/db/table/-/upsert` API, [documented here](https://docs.datasette.io/en/latest/json_api.html#tableupsertview). upsert is an update-or-insert: existing rows will have specified keys updated, but if no row matches the incoming primary key a brand new row will be inserted instead. ([#1878](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1878))
- New [register_permissions(datasette)](https://docs.datasette.io/en/latest/plugin_hooks.html#plugin-register-permissions) plugin hook. Plugins can now register named permissions, which will then be listed in various interfaces that show available permissions. ([#1940](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1940))
- The `/db/-/create` API for [creating a table](https://docs.datasette.io/en/latest/json_api.html#tablecreateview) now accepts `""ignore"": true` and `""replace"": true` options when called with the `""rows""` property that creates a new table based on an example set of rows. This means the API can be called multiple times with different rows, setting rules for what should happen if a primary key collides with an existing row. ([#1927](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1927))
- Arbitrary permissions can now be configured at the instance, database and resource (table, SQL view or canned query) level in Datasette's [Metadata](https://docs.datasette.io/en/latest/metadata.html#metadata) JSON and YAML files. The new `""permissions""` key can be used to specify which actors should have which permissions. See [Other permissions in metadata](https://docs.datasette.io/en/latest/authentication.html#authentication-permissions-other) for details. ([#1636](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1636))
- The `/-/create-token` page can now be used to create API tokens which are restricted to just a subset of actions, including against specific databases or resources. See [API Tokens](https://docs.datasette.io/en/latest/authentication.html#createtokenview) for details. ([#1947](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1947))

([#1855](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1855))
- New datasette.create_token() API method <datasette_create_token>` for programmatically creating signed API tokens. ([#1951](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1951))

SpatiaLite includes SQL functions that could cause the Datasette server to crash. See [SpatiaLite](https://docs.datasette.io/en/stable/spatialite.html#spatialite) for more details.
- New [default_allow_sql](https://docs.datasette.io/en/stable/settings.html#setting-default-allow-sql) setting, providing an easier way to disable all arbitrary SQL execution by end users: `datasette --setting default_allow_sql off`.

The new [default JSON representation](https://docs.datasette.io/en/1.0a3/json_api.html#json-api-default) for both table pages (`/dbname/table.json`) and arbitrary SQL queries (`/dbname.json?sql=...`) is now shaped like this:
```json
{
  ""ok"": true,
  ""rows"": [
    {
      ""id"": 3,
      ""name"": ""Detroit""
    },
    {
      ""id"": 2,
      ""name"": ""Los Angeles""
    },
    {
      ""id"": 4,
      ""name"": ""Memnonia""
    },
    {
      ""id"": 1,
      ""name"": ""San Francisco""
    }
  ],
  ""truncated"": false
}
```
Tables will include an additional `""next""` key for pagination, which can be passed to `?_next=` to fetch the next page of results.

The various `?_shape=` options continue to work as before - see [Different shapes](https://docs.datasette.io/en/1.0a3/json_api.html#json-api-shapes) for details.

A new `?_extra=` mechanism is available for tables, but has not yet been stabilized or documented. Details on that are available in [#262](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/262).

### Smaller changes

- Datasette documentation now shows YAML examples for [Metadata](https://docs.datasette.io/en/1.0a3/metadata.html#metadata) by default, with a tab interface for switching to JSON. ([#1153](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1153))
- [register_output_renderer(datasette)](https://docs.datasette.io/en/1.0a3/plugin_hooks.html#plugin-register-output-renderer) plugins now have access to `error` and `truncated` arguments, allowing them to display error messages and take into account truncated results. ([#2130](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/2130))
- `render_cell()` plugin hook now also supports an optional `request` argument. ([#2007](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/2007))
- New `Justfile` to support development workflows for Datasette using [Just](https://github.com/casey/just).
- `datasette.render_template()` can now accepts a `datasette.views.Context` subclass as an alternative to a dictionary. ([#2127](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/2127))
- `datasette install -e path` option for editable installations, useful while developing plugins. ([#2106](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/2106))
- When started with the `--cors` option Datasette now serves an `Access-Control-Max-Age: 3600` header, ensuring CORS OPTIONS requests are repeated no more than once an hour. ([#2079](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/2079))

This was resulting in errors in some Python installations where the SQLite library was compiled in a way that prevented this from working, in particular on macOS. Foreign keys are now added using the [table transformation](https://sqlite-utils.datasette.io/en/stable/python-api.html#python-api-transform) mechanism instead. ([#577](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/577))

This new mechanism creates a full copy of the table, so it is likely to be significantly slower for large tables, but will no longer trigger table `sqlite_master may not be modified` errors on platforms that do not support `PRAGMA writable_schema = 1`.

A new plugin, [sqlite-utils-fast-fks](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils-fast-fks), is now available for developers who still want to use that faster but riskier implementation.

Other changes:

- The [table.transform() method](https://sqlite-utils.datasette.io/en/stable/python-api.html#python-api-transform) has two new parameters: `foreign_keys=` allows you to replace the foreign key constraints defined on a table, and `add_foreign_keys=` lets you specify new foreign keys to add. These complement the existing `drop_foreign_keys=` parameter. ([#577](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/577))
- The [sqlite-utils transform](https://sqlite-utils.datasette.io/en/stable/cli.html#cli-transform-table) command has a new `--add-foreign-key` option which can be called multiple times to add foreign keys to a table that is being transformed. ([#585](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/585))
- [sqlite-utils convert](https://sqlite-utils.datasette.io/en/stable/cli.html#cli-convert) now has a `--pdb` option for opening a debugger on the first encountered error in your conversion script. ([#581](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/581))

On authenticated Datasette instances (instances protected using plugins such as [datasette-auth-passwords](https://datasette.io/plugins/datasette-auth-passwords)) the API explorer interface could reveal the names of databases and tables within the protected instance. The data stored in those tables was not revealed.

For more information and workarounds, read [the security advisory](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/security/advisories/GHSA-7ch3-7pp7-7cpq). The issue has been present in every previous alpha version of Datasette 1.0: versions 1.0a0, 1.0a1, 1.0a2 and 1.0a3.

Also in this alpha:

- The new `datasette plugins --requirements` option outputs a list of currently installed plugins in Python `requirements.txt` format, useful for duplicating that installation elsewhere. ([#2133](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/2133))
- [Writable canned queries](https://docs.datasette.io/en/latest/sql_queries.html#canned-queries-writable) can now define a `on_success_message_sql` field in their configuration, containing a SQL query that should be executed upon successful completion of the write operation in order to generate a message to be shown to the user. ([#2138](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/2138))
- The automatically generated border color for a database is now shown in more places around the application. ([#2119](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/2119))
- Every instance of example shell script code in the documentation should now include a working copy button, free from additional syntax.

Previously you needed to create a token with restrictions that explicitly listed `view-instance` and `view-database` and `view-table` in order to view a table without getting a permission denied error. ([#2102](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/2102))
- New `datasette.yaml` (or `.json`) configuration file, which can be specified using `datasette -c path-to-file`. The goal here to consolidate settings, plugin configuration, permissions, canned queries, and other Datasette configuration into a single single file, separate from `metadata.yaml`. The legacy `settings.json` config file used for [Configuration directory mode](https://docs.datasette.io/en/1.0a5/settings.html#config-dir) has been removed, and `datasette.yaml` has a `""settings""` section where the same settings key/value pairs can be included. In the next future alpha release, more configuration such as plugins/permissions/canned queries will be moved to the `datasette.yaml` file. See [#2093](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/2093) for more details. Thanks, Alex Garcia.
- The `-s/--setting` option can now take dotted paths to nested settings. These will then be used to set or over-ride the same options as are present in the new configuration file. ([#2156](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/2156))
- New `--actor '{""id"": ""json-goes-here""}'` option for use with `datasette --get` to treat the simulated request as being made by a specific actor, see [datasette --get](https://docs.datasette.io/en/1.0a5/cli-reference.html#cli-datasette-get). ([#2153](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/2153))
- The Datasette `_internal` database has had some changes. It no longer shows up in the `datasette.databases` list by default, and is now instead available to plugins using the `datasette.get_internal_database()`. Plugins are invited to use this as a private database to store configuration and settings and secrets that should not be made visible through the default Datasette interface. Users can pass the new `--internal internal.db` option to persist that internal database to disk. Thanks, Alex Garcia. ([#2157](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/2157)).",107914493,

This mechanism is intended to be used by plugins that may need to display the actor who was responsible for something managed by that plugin: they can now resolve the recorded IDs of actors into the full actor objects.
