<h2>v3.27.4</h2>
<h1>CodeQL Action Changelog</h1>
<p>See the <a
href="https://github.com/github/codeql-action/releases">releases
page</a> for the relevant changes to the CodeQL CLI and language
packs.</p>
<p>Note that the only difference between <code>v2</code> and
<code>v3</code> of the CodeQL Action is the node version they support,
with <code>v3</code> running on node 20 while we continue to release
<code>v2</code> to support running on node 16. For example
<code>3.22.11</code> was the first <code>v3</code> release and is
functionally identical to <code>2.22.11</code>. This approach ensures an
easy way to track exactly which features are included in different
versions, indicated by the minor and patch version numbers.</p>

</ul>
<h2>3.27.1 - 08 Nov 2024</h2>
<ul>
<li>The CodeQL Action now downloads bundles compressed using Zstandard
on GitHub Enterprise Server when using Linux or macOS runners. This
speeds up the installation of the CodeQL tools. This feature is already
available to GitHub.com users. <a
href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/2573">#2573</a></li>
<li>Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.19.3. <a
href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/2576">#2576</a></li>
</ul>
<h2>3.27.0 - 22 Oct 2024</h2>
<ul>
<li>Bump the minimum CodeQL bundle version to 2.14.6. <a
href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/2549">#2549</a></li>
<li>Fix an issue where the <code>upload-sarif</code> Action would fail
with &quot;upload-sarif post-action step failed: Input required and not
supplied: token&quot; when called in a composite Action that had a
different set of inputs to the ones expected by the
<code>upload-sarif</code> Action. <a
href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/2557">#2557</a></li>
<li>Update default CodeQL bundle version to 2.19.2. <a
href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/2552">#2552</a></li>
</ul>
<h2>3.26.13 - 14 Oct 2024</h2>
<p>No user facing changes.</p>
<h2>3.26.12 - 07 Oct 2024</h2>
<ul>
<li>
<p><em>Upcoming breaking change</em>: Add a deprecation warning for
customers using CodeQL version 2.14.5 and earlier. These versions of
CodeQL were discontinued on 24 September 2024 alongside GitHub
Enterprise Server 3.10, and will be unsupported by CodeQL Action
versions 3.27.0 and later and versions 2.27.0 and later. <a
href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/2520">#2520</a></p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>If you are using one of these versions, please update to CodeQL CLI
version 2.14.6 or later. For instance, if you have specified a custom
version of the CLI using the 'tools' input to the 'init' Action, you can
remove this input to use the default version.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Alternatively, if you want to continue using a version of the CodeQL
CLI between 2.13.5 and 2.14.5, you can replace
<code>github/codeql-action/*@V3</code> by
<code>github/codeql-action/*@v3.26.11</code> and
<code>github/codeql-action/*@v2</code> by
<code>github/codeql-action/*@v2.26.11</code> in your code scanning
workflow to ensure you continue using this version of the CodeQL
Action.</p>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<h2>3.26.11 - 03 Oct 2024</h2>
<ul>
<li>
<p><em>Upcoming breaking change</em>: Add support for using
<code>actions/download-artifact@v4</code> to programmatically consume
CodeQL Action debug artifacts.</p>
<p>Starting November 30, 2024, GitHub.com customers will <a
href="https://github.blog/changelog/2024-04-16-deprecation-notice-v3-of-the-artifact-actions/">no
longer be able to use <code>actions/download-artifact@v3</code></a>.
Therefore, to avoid breakage, customers who programmatically download
the CodeQL Action debug artifacts should set the
<code>CODEQL_ACTION_ARTIFACT_V4_UPGRADE</code> environment variable to
<code>true</code> and bump <code>actions/download-artifact@v3</code> to
<code>actions/download-artifact@v4</code> in their workflows. The CodeQL
Action will enable this behavior by default in early November and
workflows that have not yet bumped to
<code>actions/download-artifact@v3</code> to
<code>actions/download-artifact@v4</code> will begin failing then.</p>
