+# Changelog
+
+Updates are from recent to latest (most recent is immediately below) 
+
+## 1.0.0-alpha.11 ~ 2022-10-03
+
+### Major Change
+- `AuthResource` has `basicAuth` getter for setting the Basic Auth Credentials on some of the resource requests.
+- User and Intent resources now receive Auth resource
+
+### Fixed
+- Astra User Intent Create sends `auth` using client and secret. Previously, this caused `POST` `user_intent` to fail with Authorization error.
