Downloads
Downloads for the SDK can now be found on the developer portal. If you go to https://discord.com/developers/applications and click on your application you should have a new "Discord Social SDK" section in the sidebar (shown below) and you can download the latest release from there.
API Cleanup
In the 1.0 release, we removed all APIs that were previously marked as deprecated. Additionally we had to make one additional breaking change from the previous release. Before we had a single Client::GetDefaultScopes function that returned the oauth scopes to use, but we planned on separating these.
Client::GetDefaultPresenceScopes now returns an oauth scope that will enable: account linking, the friends list, rich presence, provisional accounts, and activity invites.
Client::GetDefaultCommunicationScopes now returns an oauth scope that will enable: user DMs, lobbies, linked channels, and voice chat, in addition to everything in the presence scopes.
Client::GetDefaultCommunicationScopes is the exact same as what your integrations have been using so far, so just switching to that will be a noop, it returns the exact same oauth scopes as before and nothing else has changed.
However, if you are not planning to use DMs or Lobbies, you should consider switching to Client::GetDefaultPresenceScopes, since that way when users go to authorize the integration, they will only see the scopes that your integration is actually requesting, and won't wonder why you are requesting messaging permissions when you don't use them. If you have any questions about this though, please reach out!
Going forward, we are also enabling linked channels by default for apps that use the "communications" scopes, however, that change was not retroactive, so if you plan to use linked channels, please reach out to us when you are ready and we can turn that on for you.
Voice
Ensure that when a call is ended the participant always notifies the server they have left
Added Call::GetVADThreshold
Fixed a subtle regression in Client::SetSelfDeafAll
Documented that Client::StartCall will return null if attempting to start a call in a lobby while already in a call for that same lobby
Fix a crash that occurs in lobby voice after network drop out on Xbox
Presence/Invites
Fixed a crash when a non-friend user sends an activity invite to a lobby
Fixed that for provisional accounts, who also had the discord desktop app running, presence would not be cleared when the SDK was shutdown but the game was still running.
When publishing rich presence, the Joinable flag will only be set on the Activity if valid party information is present so that the Discord apps do not render the rich presence as joinable which can lead to an error
Fixed UserHandle::Status and UserHandle::GameActivity not including information about the current user
Improved the docs around RegisterLaunchCommand
C/C++ APIs
Fixed the internal C api (which we don't recommend using) to not crash if a nullptr is passed to the free function

Removed DiscordObjectState::Unowned since it was never used
Misc
