+### New `core_courseformat_new_module` webservice
+
+<Since version="5.0" issueNumber="MDL-83469" />
+
+A new webservice, `core_courseformat_new_module`, has been introduced to replace the previous `core_courseformat_create_module`. The main difference between the two is that the new webservice uses the section id instead of the section number.
+
+To be sure your format plugin is not affected by the change, you must check:
+
+- If the plugin calls the deprecated webservice `core_courseformat_create_module`. If it does, you should update your code to use the new webservice.
+- The plugin has some link with `data-action` set to `addModule`. If it does, replace it by `data-action` set to `newModule` and add a `data-sectionid` attribute with the section id.
