 # Splunk Enterprise SDK for JavaScript Changelog
 
+## v2.0.0
+
+### New features and APIs
+* Callbacks have been removed and instead we are returning Promises which enables users to use Async/Await features of JS. ([PR#162](https://github.com/splunk/splunk-sdk-javascript/pull/162)) 
+* Added 'response_timeout' parameter which enables user to specify the timeout for a particular API call.
+* Removed Async.js file and the required methods have been migrated to Utils.js following the Promise structure.
+
+### Minor changes
+* Update doc generation logic in GitHub ci ([PR#167](https://github.com/splunk/splunk-sdk-javascript/pull/167))
+* Updated minimist library versions ([PR#166](https://github.com/splunk/splunk-sdk-javascript/pull/166))
+* Added feature that allows to update ACL properties of an entity ([PR#170](https://github.com/splunk/splunk-sdk-javascript/pull/170))
+* Support for updated SDK examples ([PR#171](https://github.com/splunk/splunk-sdk-javascript/pull/171))

 # The Splunk Enterprise Software Development Kit for JavaScript
 
-#### Version 1.12.1
+#### Version 2.0.0
 
 The Splunk Enterprise Software Development Kit (SDK) for JavaScript contains library code and examples designed to enable developers to build applications using the Splunk platform and JavaScript. This SDK supports server-side and client-side JavaScript.

 Then, to include the Splunk Enterprise SDK for JavaScript, use the `require` function in your code:
 
-    var splunkjs = require('splunk-sdk');
+    let splunkjs = require('splunk-sdk');
 
 ## Usage
 
 The following examples show you how to list search jobs using client-side and server-side code.
 
+### Migrate from Callbacks(v1.x) to Promise/async-await(v2.x)
+
+Previous Callback Approach:
+```javascript
+let appName = "<app-name>";
+
+service.apps().fetch(function (err, apps) {
+    if (err) {
+        done(err);
+    }
+    let appList = apps.list();
+    // other code
+    done();
+});
+```
+
+From v2.x, Splunk Enterprise SDK for JavaScript methods are updated to return Promises, which will enable users to utilize Async/await feature of JS.
+
+Promise Approach:
+```javascript
+let appName = "<app-name>";  
+try {
+    let apps = await service.apps().fetch();
+    let appList = apps.list();
+    // other code
+} catch (err) {
+    console.log("There was an error retrieving the list of applications:", err);
+}
+```
+
+>**Note**: `abort()` method has been replaced with 'response_timeout' parameter which enables user to specify the timeout for a particular API call.
