# What's changed in v18.6.0

> New `invoke auth template` and `invoke auth render` commands for inspecting an app's auth request shape

*Released: 2026-05-05*

This release adds two new commands that let you inspect and render the authentication request your app produces. They run your app's middleware (`beforeRequest`, `getAccessToken`, etc.) with placeholder credentials and capture the resulting auth request shape (headers, query params, and body) without making a real network call.

`zapier-platform invoke auth template` returns the static template (with `{{placeholders}}` for auth fields). `zapier-platform invoke auth render` substitutes real auth data from .env into that template and returns the final request.
