Release highlights in this article
New Features
- In addition to DoorDash Drive, Uber Direct is now supported as a delivery provider, and tiebreaker-selection logic is in place for clients using both.
- All of the prebuilt experiences in Order Experience Builder now have support for group ordering.

- Since DoorDash stopped accepting alcohol deliveries on May 1, Online Ordering ensures that third-party deliveries containing alcohol are either routed to Uber (if enabled) or rejected.

- Online Ordering enables clients to configure custom store attributes that will be surfaced in the API to provide information that an integrator may care about at the store level, such as available amenities.
