-Support for Python 3.10 has been dropped. The Apify Python SDK v4.x now requires Python 3.11 or later — make sure your environment is on a compatible version before upgrading.
+Support for Python 3.10 has been dropped. Apify Python SDK v4.x requires Python 3.11 or later.
+
+## `apify-client` v3 required
+
+The SDK is now built on `apify-client` v3 and no longer depends on `apify-shared`. Three changes are user-visible:
+
+- `Actor.start`, `Actor.call`, `Actor.call_task`, and `Actor.metamorph` return `apify_client._models.Run` instead of the SDK-side `ActorRun`. The shape is equivalent — only the import path changes.
+- `apify.WebhookEventType` is now a `Literal[...]` instead of a `StrEnum`. Use plain string values (`'ACTOR.RUN.FAILED'`) instead of enum members.
+- `apify_shared.consts.ActorEventTypes` (a `StrEnum`) is replaced by `apify.ActorEventTypes`, now a `Literal['systemInfo', 'persistState', 'migrating', 'aborting']`. For runtime values, use `apify.Event` (re-exported from Crawlee) instead of enum members.
+
+**Before (v3.x):**
+
+```python
+from apify import Actor
+from apify_shared.consts import ActorEventTypes
+
+Actor.on(ActorEventTypes.SYSTEM_INFO, callback)
+```
+
+**Now (v4.0):**
+
+```python
+from apify import Actor, Event
+
+Actor.on(Event.SYSTEM_INFO, callback)
+```
+
+## `Webhook` API simplified
+
+The `Webhook` model has been slimmed down to only the fields a user sets when defining a webhook. Server-populated response fields (`id`, `created_at`, `modified_at`, `user_id`, `is_ad_hoc`, `condition`, `last_dispatch`, `stats`) and the unused `WebhookCondition` helper class have been removed. `Webhook` is now a plain `@dataclass` instead of a Pydantic `BaseModel` — construct it with snake_case kwargs; `.model_dump()` / `.model_validate()` are gone.
+
+The retry and idempotency kwargs that used to live on `Actor.add_webhook` have moved onto the `Webhook` instance itself.
+
+**Before (v3.x):**
+
+```python
+from apify import Actor, Webhook
+
+await Actor.add_webhook(
+    Webhook(event_types=['ACTOR.RUN.FAILED'], request_url='https://example.com'),
+    ignore_ssl_errors=False,
+    do_not_retry=False,
+    idempotency_key='my-key',
+)
+```
+
+**Now (v4.0):**
+
+```python
+from apify import Actor, Webhook
+
+await Actor.add_webhook(
+    Webhook(
+        event_types=['ACTOR.RUN.FAILED'],
+        request_url='https://example.com',
+        ignore_ssl_errors=False,
+        do_not_retry=False,
+        idempotency_key='my-key',
+    )
+)
+```
+
+The `idempotency_key` kwarg form on `Actor.add_webhook` still works for one more release but emits a `DeprecationWarning` and will be removed in v5.0. The `ignore_ssl_errors` and `do_not_retry` kwargs have been removed outright — set them on the `Webhook` instance.
+
+`apify.WebhookCondition` is no longer exported; the SDK now binds the webhook to the current Actor run internally.
+
+The `webhooks` argument on `Actor.start`, `Actor.call`, and `Actor.call_task` still accepts `list[Webhook]` and the fields used at the call site (`event_types`, `request_url`, `payload_template`, `headers_template`) are unchanged.
+
+## `Actor.new_client` — `timeout` scales all tiers
+
+`apify-client` v3 split its single timeout into four tiers (short / medium / long / max). `Actor.new_client(timeout=...)` still takes a single `timedelta`; the SDK uses it as the medium-tier baseline and scales the other tiers proportionally (short = `timeout / 6`, long = `timeout * 12`, max = `timeout * 24`). The public signature is unchanged — no migration needed.
