Fixed

• Fixed "Fetch failed: Invalid URL" error when using agentOptions by ensuring request creation
  consistently uses undici.Request together with undici.fetch when the undici-based
  dispatcher is active. This avoids invalid URL errors caused by mixing globalThis.Request
  with undici request implementations.

Fixed

• Fixed a JSON Parse error: Unexpected EOF occurring in the Bun runtime when using
  documentExists, vertexExists, or edgeExists. The driver now correctly skips
  response body parsing for HEAD requests, which must not include a body per RFC 7231.
  This fix also applies to all HEAD requests made via Route.head(), ensuring consistent
  behavior and compatibility across all fetch implementations.
  (#821)

• Fixed ECONNRESET errors in NextJS 15 production builds when using next/cookies
  by explicitly setting the Content-Length header for all fixed-size request bodies.
  The driver now calculates and sets Content-Length for strings (JSON and plain text),
  Blobs, Buffers, FormData, and empty bodies, ensuring compatibility with NextJS 15
  dynamic routes and other environments that don't automatically set this header.
  (#831)

Fixed

• Fixed agentOptions not being passed to createHost function, preventing
  configuration of undici agent for self-signed certificates and other TLS options.
  The agentOptions parameter is now properly extracted from configuration and
  passed to all host creation calls. (#824)

Added

• Added maxSkewThreshold and minDeletionRatio options to TierConsolidationPolicy type (DE-1094)

  These options are available from ArangoDB 3.12.7 onward and can be used for both arangosearch Views and inverted indexes.

• Added storedValues option for vector indexes (DE-1098)

  Vector indexes now support storing additional attributes for efficient filtering.
  This option is available in ArangoDB 3.12.7+.

• Added innerProduct metric support for vector indexes

  Vector indexes now support the innerProduct metric, which was introduced in
  ArangoDB 3.12.6. This metric compares both angle and magnitude without normalization,
  making it faster than cosine similarity.

• Added access token support (DE-1106)

  Access tokens can be used as password replacements for authentication. This
  feature enables better automation, CI/CD integration, and fine-grained access
  control.

  • Added db.createAccessToken(username, options) method to create access
    tokens for users
  • Added db.getAccessTokens(username) method to list all access tokens for
    a user (metadata only)
  • Added db.deleteAccessToken(username, tokenId) method to revoke access
    tokens
  • Added db.useAccessToken(token) convenience method for Basic Auth
    authentication with tokens
  • Added TypeScript types: CreateAccessTokenOptions, AccessToken,
    AccessTokenMetadata, and AccessTokenListResponse

  Access tokens can be used with:

  • Basic Authentication: db.useAccessToken(token) or
    db.useBasicAuth("", token)
  • JWT exchange: db.login("", token) or db.login(username, token)

  Note: The valid_until option accepts only Unix timestamps (numbers in
  seconds), not Date objects. Users must convert Date objects themselves:
  Math.floor(date.getTime() / 1000).

Deprecated

• Deprecated consolidation policy options in TierConsolidationPolicy that are ignored by ArangoDB 3.12.7+ (DE-1094)

  The following options are ignored by the server from v3.12.7 onwards: segmentsMin, segmentsMax, segmentsBytesFloor and minScore. These fields remain in the type definition for backward compatibility but are marked as deprecated.

Full Changelog: v10.1.1...v10.1.2

Changed

• Removed File from source option types in Foxx CRUD methods (#818)

  The source option type already includes Blob, which File extends.

Added

• Added ignoreRevs option to RemoveDocumentOptions type (DE-947)

  This affects the collection.remove and collection.removeAll methods.

This is a major release and breaks backwards compatibility.

See the migration guide for detailed instructions
for upgrading your code to arangojs v10.

Removed

• Removed unused CreateUserOptions type

  The actual type used by the db.createUser method is still UserOptions.

• Removed unused IndexDetails type

  This type was intended to be returned by collection.indexes when the
  withStats option is set to true but the figures property is already
  included in the current return type.

• Removed Node.js 18 support

  Node.js 18 will reach its end of life in May 2025, so arangojs will no
  longer support this version of Node.js going forward.

  For more information, see the Node.js release schedule.

Changed

• Closing a connection now closes all open requests

  Previously in certain situations only the most recent request would be
  closed per server. Note that this still merely aborts the requests but
  does not guarantee the underlying connections are closed as these are
  handled by Node.js or the browser natively. need to be installed
  otherwise.

• Moved fetch-specific config options from into config.fetchOptions

  The following options were moved: credentials, headers and keepalive.

• db.setUserAccessLevel now takes grant as a separate parameter

  The parameter was previously passed as an additional property in the
  options parameter.

Error handling

• Errors encountered before a request completes are now wrapped in a
  NetworkError or a subclass thereof

  This should help making it easier to diagnose network issues and distinguish
  the relevant error conditions.

  The originating error can still be accessed using the cause property of the
  NetworkError error.

• HttpError now extends the NetworkError class

  This allows treating all non-ArangoError errors as one category of errors,
  even when there is no server response available.

• db.waitForPropagation now throws a PropagationTimeoutError error when
  invoked with a timeout option and the timeout duration is exceeded

  The method would previously throw the most recent error encountered while
  waiting for replication. The originating error can still be accessed using
  the cause property of the PropagationTimeoutError error.

• db.waitForPropagation now respects the timeout option more strictly

  Previously the method would only time out if the timeout duration was
  exceeded after the most recent request failed. Now the timeout is
  recalculated and passed on to each request, preventing it from exceeding
  the specified duration.

  If the propagation timed out due to an underlying request exceeding the
  timeout duration, the cause property of the PropagationTimeoutError
  error will be a ResponseTimeoutError error.

• config.beforeRequest and config.afterResponse callbacks can now return
  promises

  If the callback returns a promise, it will be awaited before the request
  and response cycle proceeds. If either callback throws an error or returns
  a promise that is rejected, that error will be thrown instead.

• config.afterResponse callback signature changed

  The callback signature previously used the internal ArangojsResponse type.
  The new signature uses the Response type of the Fetch API with an
  additional request property to more accurately represent the actual value
  it receives as the parsedBody property will never be present.

• response property on ArangoError is now optional

  This property should always be present but this allows using the error in
  situations where a response might not be available.

General type changes

• Changed GraphVertexCollection and GraphEdgeCollection generic types to
  take separate EntryResultType and EntryInputType type parameters

• Changed db.collection, db.createCollection and db.createEdgeCollection
  methods to take separate EntryResultType and EntryInputType type
  parameters

  These type parameters are used to narrow the the returned collection type.

• Changed db.removeUser method return type to Promise<void>

  The previous return type served no purpose.

• Changed QueueTimeMetrics type to an interface

• Changed CursorExtras and CursorStats interfaces to types

Low-level request/route changes

• Renamed path option to pathname in RequestOptions type

  This affects the db.waitForPropagation and route.request methods.

• Removed basePath option from RequestOptions type

  This affects the db.waitForPropagation and route.request methods.

• Renamed route.path property to route.pathname

Renamed methods

• Renamed various methods for consistency:

  Methods that return an array now follow the listNouns pattern, methods that
