+# 2024-05-06
+If you use CNAMEs a trailing dot will now be added automatically.
+This behavior is in line with other record types that use dns names.
+
+This breaks using subdomain paths in CNAMEs and if you are using full domain names
+in CNAMEs you will need to remove the trailing dot in your config.
+
+`zones."example.org"."example".cname.data = "example2"`-> `example.example.org IN CNAME example2.`
+You will now have to write it as:
+`zones."example.org"."example".cname.data = "example2.example.org"`-> `example.example.org IN CNAME example2.example.org.`
