Binary breaking changes do not necessarily require code changes but rather just a recompilation of the project. This section describes breaking changes to method signatures or to method behaviors in Optimizely Configured Commerce.
Low risk
- Enabled VSTHRD110 Analyzer – Added a RunAsync method to the non-extensible public interface IScopedTaskRunner.

- Fixed a performance issue on the Spire CMS page re-order feature – The non-extensible interface IDataProvider has a new method: InsertRange<T>(IEnumerable<T> value).
- Fixed attributes value text exceeding length limits – Added a function parameter to log warning messages during search indexing. Affected Interfaces are IProductSearchIndexer and ISearchIndexBuilder.
- Developed Commerce search provider – Added an optional parameter searchProvider to the method IProductSearcIndexer.BuildProductSearchIndex will be used by Commerce Search v3 to know the current context of the search provider and correctly initiate the product indexing.

- Fixed broken customizations to CanAddToCart in Product API V2 when using Override Product v1 setting – Added a method to the non-extensible interface ICatalogPipeline to add a pipeline for CanAddToCart logic so it can be consistently customized in both products v1 and v2.
