+- **Legacy API Gateway support is removed**: The Consul API Gateway that was previously packaged as `consul-api-gateway`, released separately from Consul K8s, and deprecated in Consul v1.16.x is now removed. This gateway is referred to as the _legacy API Gateway_. As of Consul v1.17.0, you must [install](/consul/docs/connect/gateways/api-gateway/install-k8s) the _native API Gateway_ and configure it using the [`connectInject.apiGateway`](/consul/docs/k8s/helm#apigateway) stanza.
