 ## [unreleased]
 
 - `session.CreateNewSession` now defaults to the value of the `st-auth-mode` header (if available) if the configured `config.GetTokenTransferMethod` returns `any`.
+- Enable smooth switching between `useDynamicAccessTokenSigningKey` settings by allowing refresh calls to change the signing key type of a session.
 
 ## [0.17.5] - 2024-03-14
 - Adds a type uint64 to the `accessTokenCookiesExpiryDurationMillis` local variable in `recipe/session/utils.go`. It also removes the redundant `uint64` type forcing needed because of the untyped variable.
