+title:  openEO API 1.3.0 and openEO Processes 2.0.0 RC2 released
+date:   2026-02-03
+author: Matthias Mohr
+---
+
+Today, we have released the new version 1.3.0 of the openEO API. At the same time, we've also released openEO Processes 2.0.0-rc.2.
+
+These releases continue the journey towards first-class vector data cube support, while also bringing a number of quality-of-life improvements for implementers (back-ends) and consumers (clients).
+
+Back-ends and clients are advised to check their implementations against the new specifications and update accordingly.
+
+Below you can find details about the individual releases:
+
+## openEO API v1.3.0
+
+openEO API 1.3.0 contains a set of improvements, clarifications and new capabilities, with a strong focus on authentication, batch job metadata and interoperability.
+
+- [API documentation](https://api.openeo.org/1.3.0)
+
+Please consult the **[changelog](https://github.com/Open-EO/openeo-api/tree/1.3.0/CHANGELOG.md)** for the full list of changes and additions.
+
+### Highlights
+
+- **New extensions**:
+  - [Processing Parameters Extension](https://github.com/Open-EO/openeo-api/tree/1.3.0/extensions/processing-parameters)
+  - [Remote Process Definition Extension](https://github.com/Open-EO/openeo-api/tree/1.3.0/extensions/remote-process-definition)
+  - [Workspaces Extension](https://github.com/Open-EO/openeo-api/tree/1.3.0/extensions/workspaces)
+- **Authentication updates:** Support for standard JSON Web Tokens (JWT) as Bearer tokens, while deprecating the openEO-specific token format.
+- **Batch job metadata improvements:** Additional timestamps such as `queued`, `started` and `unpublished`, a status diagram, and extended timestamps in STAC results.
+- **Improved logging:** Added `stacktrace` to log entries to simplify debugging.
+- **Discovery and process metadata tightened:** `GET /` now requires the fields `type` and `conformsTo`; `GET /processes` adds a `version` property for processes; `GET /` also adds a new `web-editor` link relation type.
+- **Deprecations:** STAC 0.9.x is deprecated.
+
+Feedback is more than welcome. Please report issues and questions through the [GitHub issue tracker](https://github.com/Open-EO/openeo-api/issues). The next version is likely v1.4.0, work has started.
+
+## openEO Processes v2.0.0-rc.2
+
+openEO Processes 2.0.0-rc.2 is the second release candidate of the upcoming 2.0 release series. It builds on the 2.0 work that introduced the `datacube` data type and vector cube support, and continues to improve process definitions, consistency and implementability.
+
+Please note that some changes are breaking changes. Make sure to review the changelog carefully before updating implementations.
+
+- [Processes documentation](https://processes.openeo.org/2.0.0-rc.2)
+
+Please consult the **[changelog](https://github.com/Open-EO/openeo-processes/tree/2.0.0-rc.2/CHANGELOG.md)** for a full list of changes and additions.
+
+### Highlights (Processes)
+
+- **Implementation support:** A new implementation guide for implementing OGC API - Processes in openEO, plus a dedicated set of unit tests.
+- **New processes:**
+  - `export_collection`, `export_workspace`
+  - `run_ogcapi`, `run_ogcapi_externally`
+  - `stac_modify`
+  - `text_find`
+- **More stable processes:** `apply_polygon`, `date_between`, `date_shift`, `filter_labels` and `inspect` are now marked as stable.
+- **Behaviour and consistency updates:**
+  - `save_results` returns the STAC resource (instead of boolean `true`).
+  - `all` returns `true` for empty arrays; `any` returns `false` for empty arrays.
+  - `apply_polygon` renamed parameter `polygons` to `geometries`.
+  - `clip` throws an exception if min > max. [#472](https://github.com/Open-EO/openeo-processes/issues/472)
+  - `date_difference` allows `week` as a unit.
+  - `is_nan` returns `false` for non-numerical data types. [#486](https://github.com/Open-EO/openeo-processes/issues/486)
+- **Clarifications and fixes across the board:** Improved handling of `NaN`, `null` and no-data values, added uniqueness constraints for various array-typed parameters, and numerous targeted fixes (e.g. geometry dimension type clarifications).
+
+As this is a release candidate, feedback is more than welcome. Please report issues and questions through the [GitHub issue tracker](https://github.com/Open-EO/openeo-processes/issues). The next version is likely v2.0.0 (stable).
