7.16.0

Client

Deprecated

• Deprecated the send_get_body_as parameter. This parameter is no longer necessary
  as APIs all use non-GET HTTP methods when using a body.
• Removal of body, params, and other per-request parameters has been delayed beyond 8.0.0.
  Changed deprecation warnings to mention "future version" instead of 8.0.0.

Fixed

• Fixed an issue with unicode HTTP headers with the urllib3 HTTP client
• Fixed an issue with the scan helper to always set the sort and scroll parameters
