Welcome, friends, to our monthly episode of New in Nylas! 👋 It's officially comfy sweater weather and we've got _a lot_ of updates, so let's get cozy and chat about the latest. ☕️

## Introducing privacy mode

We recently released [Nylas' privacy mode](/docs/dev-guide/platform/privacy-mode/), a security feature that restricts the calendar and event data your project can access. When it's enabled, your project can only access events created using the Nylas APIs _after_ you turned the feature on. This can be useful for projects where you require a certain level of access management.

## Introducing application-level field selection

Our developers have also been hacking away at [application-level field selection](/docs/dev-guide/platform/field-selection/) for API responses and notification payloads. Before this, you could specify the fields Nylas would return for individual requests using the [`select` query parameter](#reduce-response-size-with-field-selection), but you'd have to do so with every request.

Now, you can specify the fields you want Nylas to return for all of your project's [Messages](/docs/reference/api/messages/) and [Events](/docs/reference/api/events/) requests. Just [contact the Nylas Sales team](https://www.nylas.com/contact-sales/?utm_source=docs&utm_campaign=2025-november-relnotes&utm_content=relnotes) to enable the feature!

If you want to filter the parameters Nylas sends in [Message](/docs/reference/notifications/#message-notifications) and [Event](/docs/reference/notifications/#event-notifications) webhook notifications, you can configure them in the [Dashboard](https://dashboard-v3.nylas.com/?utm_source=docs&utm_campaign=2025-november-relnotes&utm_content=relnotes).

## Easy authentication with Nylas Connect

As a reminder, October saw us release our [Nylas Connect library](/docs/v3/auth/nylas-connect/). It's an open-source JavaScript/TypeScript library that you can use to easily integrate authentication with your project. For more information, take a look at our [release note](/docs/new/release-notes/2025-10-08-nylas-connect/) and the [Nylas Blog announcement](https://www.nylas.com/blog/nylas-connect-a-javascript-library-for-connecting-grants-from-the-browser/?utm_source=docs&utm_campaign=2025-november-relnotes&utm_content=relnotes).

## Nylas API improvements and bug fixes

- Added support for `idp_claims` and `jwks` verification for [Hosted OAuth](/docs/v3/auth/hosted-oauth-apikey/).
- Added `hard_delete` query parameter to [Delete Message endpoint](/docs/reference/api/messages/delete-message/). When `true`, Nylas immediately deletes the specified message rather than sending it to the user's Trash folder.
- Added support for inviting participants to Microsoft events without specifying an email address.
- Updated how Nylas handles IMAP folder attributes. It now sets them based on system attributes and folder names.
- Fixed metadata inheritance for events. Recurring events now include metadata from the parent event.
- Fixed the `ical_uid` query parameter on [Get all Events requests](/docs/reference/api/events/get-all-events/). Nylas now supports filtering by `ical_uid` for events created on other providers.
- Fixed issues with parsing attachments from messages on IMAP grants. Nylas now partially parses raw MIME data with an unexpected EoF.

## Nylas SDK changelogs

-  **Ruby SDK**:
  [v6.7.0](/docs/new/v3-changelogs/2025-10-03-ruby-sdk-v6-7-0/)

## New and updated docs

We’re always working to make our docs better! This month, we’re pointing the spotlight at these pages:

- ✨ [Reducing response sizes with field selection](/docs/dev-guide/platform/field-selection/)
- ✨ [Restricting data access with privacy mode](/docs/dev-guide/platform/privacy-mode/)

## Upcoming webinar: Prevent churn with Nylas Notetaker

As we've continued working on [Notetaker](/docs/v3/notetaker/), we learned that 68% of SaaS users would be willing to switch tools for better AI meeting features. Want to learn more? Join our Product Managers, Hazik Afzal and Nick Barraclough, on **November 13th at 10:00a.m. PT/1:00p.m. ET** to see how you can use Notetaker to stay ahead. They'll share highlights from our 2025 State of Meeting Recordings report, our latest product updates, and a preview of what's coming next.

  Register for the webinar!
