# Changelog Apr 03, 2026 - Neon

## AI-assisted shortcuts in the Neon Docs

**Copy page** in the header opens a menu on every [Neon Docs](/guides/neon-docs-index) page: copy the page as Markdown, or open it in **ChatGPT** or **Claude** to ask questions with the page in context.

**Set up Neon with AI** appears in the right-hand sidebar. Choose it to open a modal where you can copy **`npx neonctl@latest init`** (npm or Homebrew tabs).

The **`init`** command gives your assistant Neon context and configures the **[Neon MCP Server](/guides/postgres-ai-neon-mcp-server)**. For the full flow and supported tools, see **[Connect MCP clients to Neon](/guides/postgres-ai-connect-mcp-clients-to-neon)**.

## Postgres extension updates

### neon extension version update

The **`neon`** extension is now **version 1.14**, up from **1.9**. The `neon` extension can be used to monitor **[Local File Cache](/guides/postgres-extensions-neon#what-is-the-compute-cache)** usage (how often pages are served from cache versus database storage) through the **`neon_stat_file_cache`** view and **`EXPLAIN ANALYZE`**. See **[The neon extension](/guides/postgres-extensions-neon)** for details.

### pg\_search deprecation

Neon support for the **`pg_search`** extension is deprecated. As of **March 19, 2026**, it is not available for **new** Neon projects.

**If you already use `pg_search`:** you will continue to have access to the extension on your existing projects. Our team will contact you to discuss alternative options and deprecation timelines. You do not need to take action before we reach out. See **[The pg\_search extension](/guides/postgres-extensions-pg-search)** for alternatives you may want to explore.

## Azure region deprecation

As of **April 7, 2026**, all Neon Azure regions (`azure-eastus2`, `azure-westus3`, and `azure-gwc`) are deprecated.

**If your project already runs in an Azure region:** your databases keep running as they do today.

**If your organization actively uses Azure regions:** you can continue to create new projects in Azure regions to maintain your current operations. Otherwise, new Azure project creation is no longer available.

We will contact you directly to discuss migration options and timelines. You do not need to migrate on your own before we reach out. See [Region migration](/guides/neon-docs-import-region-migration) if you want to start planning a move.

#### How to check if you are on an Azure region

Open your organization’s **[Projects](https://console.neon.tech/app/)** page. Your project’s region is shown in the **Projects** table.

## Build stateful AI agents with Mastra and Neon

[**Building stateful AI Agents with Mastra and Neon Postgres**](https://neon.com/guides/mastra-neon) shows how to use Mastra’s Memory module with Neon so agents keep context across threads and sessions instead of starting from scratch every time.

## Build on Neon with the Vercel AI SDK

[**Build a Data-Driven AI Assistant on Slack with Vercel AI SDK and Neon Read Replicas**](https://neon.com/guides/ai-sdk-neon-data-assistant) walks through a Slack bot that answers data questions with the **Vercel AI SDK**. Queries run against a **Neon read replica** so production stays protected.

:::accordion{title="Neon branching GitHub Actions"}
We updated the [Create branch](https://github.com/marketplace/actions/neon-create-branch-github-action), [Delete branch](https://github.com/marketplace/actions/neon-database-delete-branch), and [Reset branch](https://github.com/marketplace/actions/neon-database-reset-branch-action) GitHub Actions. If your workflows already use `@v6`, `@v3`, or `@v1`, you will pick up these changes automatically on your next run.

- **[Create branch 6.3.1](https://github.com/neondatabase/create-branch-action/releases/tag/6.3.1)**: Migrates to Node 24 and prefers a read/write endpoint when resolving connection details.
- **[Delete branch 3.2.1](https://github.com/neondatabase/delete-branch-action/releases/tag/v3.2.1)** and **[Reset branch 1.3.2](https://github.com/neondatabase/reset-branch-action/releases/tag/v1.3.2)**: Pins `actions/setup-node` to a commit SHA for supply-chain consistency.

:::accordion{title="Neon API"}
- The **`GET /consumption_history/account`** endpoint (Get account consumption metrics) is **deprecated**, with a planned sunset of **June 1, 2026**. If you use aggregated account-level consumption metrics, move to **[project-level consumption metrics](/guides/building-on-neon-guides-consumption-metrics)** before that date. The [project-level endpoint](/guides/apis-sdks-reference-api-consumption-get-consumption-history-per-project-v2) reports metrics aligned with Neon's usage-based billing for improved consumption tracking.
:::

:::accordion{title="Fixes & improvements"}
- Fixed an issue where **Ask AI** (the **Neon AI Assistant** drawer) did not open when selecting **Support** from the **Resources** (?) menu in the Neon Console.
