    💥 Breaking changes

    For a data source query made via /api/ds/query :

    • If the DatasourceQueryMultiStatus feature is enabled and
      • The data source response has an error set as part of the DataResponse, the resulting HTTP status code is now 207 Multi Status instead of 400 Bad gateway
    • If the DatasourceQueryMultiStatus feature is not enabled and
      • The data source response has an error set as part of the DataResponse, the resulting HTTP status code is 400 Bad Request (no breaking change) --> Issue #48550
