 # Beeline Changelog
 
+## [2.3.0] - 2025-01-17
+
+### Fixes
+
+- fix: set service name in spring boot starter (#317) | @JamieDanielson
+
+**NOTE**: this is technically a **breaking change** for Spring applications instrumented with Beeline.
+
+- If using a **Classic** key, and the `service.name` attribute was previously left empty and relied on `spring.application.name`, it will now have `unknown_service:java` for that attribute but will continue to send to the configured dataset. Set `honeycomb.beeline.dataset` for dataset in Honeycomb.
+- If using an **Environments & Services** key, data will be sent to the configured `service.name` attribute; if that is not set, it will be sent to `unknown_service:java` in Honeycomb. Set `honeycomb.beeline.service-name` for dataset in Honeycomb.
+
+### Maintenance
+
+- maint(deps): bump org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-javadoc-plugin from 3.4.1 to 3.11.2 (#319) | dependabot[bot]
+- maint(deps): bump net.bytebuddy:byte-buddy from 1.14.3 to 1.15.11 (#318) | dependabot[bot]
+- maint: remove and gitignore bin (#316) | @JamieDanielson
+- maint: Update README.md (#314) | @codeboten

 # Creating a new release
 
-1. Update the `<version>` tag in each pom.xml in the repo.
-2. Add new release notes to the Changelog.
-3. Open a PR with those changes.
-4. Once the above PR is merged, tag `main` with the new version, e.g. `v0.1.1`. Push the tags. This will kick off a CI workflow, which will publish a draft GitHub release, and publish artifacts to Maven.
-5. Update Release Notes on the new draft GitHub release, and publish that.
+- Update the `<version>` tag in each pom.xml in the repo.
+- Update `CHANGELOG.md` with the changes since the last release. Consider automating with a command such as these two:
+  - `git log $(git describe --tags --abbrev=0)..HEAD --no-merges --oneline > new-in-this-release.log`
+  - `git log --pretty='%C(green)%d%Creset- %s | [%an](https://github.com/)'`
+- Commit changes, push, and open a release preparation pull request for review.
+- Once the pull request is merged, fetch the updated `main` branch.
+- Apply a tag for the new version on the merged commit (e.g. `git tag -a v2.3.1 -m "v2.3.1"`).
+- Push the tag upstream (this will kick off the release pipeline in CI) e.g. `git push origin v2.3.1`.
+- Ensure that there is a draft GitHub release created as part of CI publish steps (this will also publish to Maven).
+- Click "generate release notes" in GitHub for full changelog notes and any new contributors.
+- Publish the GitHub draft release.
