    Known Potential Breaking Changes in v9.3.0+

    โฌ†๏ธ For clarity, we are restating the breaking changes from the 9.3.0 here, as if you have not yet upgraded to 9.3.0 or later, they still apply.
    โšก๏ธ If you currently use any 3rd party or in-house Persona Bar extensions which utilize the export bundle from the Admin Experience, they will need to be updated after upgrading to v9.3. Please see the Upgrading Persona Bar Components Guide by Matt Rutledge to help you with that process.
