# Changelog

## Unreleased

## 1.7.0

Released 2023-Dec-08

## 1.7.0-rc.1

Released 2023-Nov-29

* Updated `Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting.Abstractions` package
  version to `8.0.0`.
  ([#5051](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-dotnet/pull/5051))

* The `OpenTelemetryBuilder.WithMetrics` method will now register an
  `IMetricsListener` named 'OpenTelemetry' into the `IServiceCollection` to
  enable metric management via the new `Microsoft.Extensions.Diagnostics` .NET 8
  APIs.
  ([#4958](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-dotnet/pull/4958))

* The `OpenTelemetryBuilder.WithLogging` experimental API method will now
  register an `ILoggerProvider` named 'OpenTelemetry' into the
  `IServiceCollection` to enable `ILoggerFactory` integration.
  ([#5072](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-dotnet/pull/5072))

## 1.7.0-alpha.1

Released 2023-Oct-16

* Changed the behavior of the `OpenTelemetryBuilder.AddOpenTelemetry` extension
  to INSERT OpenTelemetry services at the beginning of the `IServiceCollection`
  in an attempt to provide a better experience for end users capturing telemetry
  in hosted services. Note that this does not guarantee that OpenTelemetry
  services will be initialized while other hosted services start, so it is
  possible to miss telemetry until OpenTelemetry services are fully initialized.
