 ## (Unreleased)
 **BREAKING CHANGES**
+* Users with custom templates should update their `template_schema.json` to set `uiSchema.overview` widget to `textarea` to ensure a consistent UI experience as per ([#4860](https://github.com/microsoft/AzureTRE/pull/4860)).
 * Remove Windows 10 and dsvm image support from Guacamole. ([#4890](https://github.com/microsoft/AzureTRE/issues/4890))
 
 ENHANCEMENTS:
 * Specify default_outbound_access_enabled = false setting for all subnets ([#4757](https://github.com/microsoft/AzureTRE/pull/4757))
 * Pin all GitHub Actions workflow steps to full commit SHAs to prevent supply chain attacks plus update to latest releases ([#4886](https://github.com/microsoft/AzureTRE/pull/4886))
 * Add Windows Server 2025 image support to Guacamole. ([#4890](https://github.com/microsoft/AzureTRE/issues/4890))
 
+BUG FIXES:
+* Fix uiSchema.overview params overwritten by ui ([#4861](https://github.com/microsoft/AzureTRE/issues/4861))
+
 ## (0.28.0) (March 2, 2026)
 **BREAKING CHANGES**
 * Sonatype Nexus shared service now requires explicit EULA acceptance (`accept_nexus_eula: true`) when deploying. This ensures compliance with Sonatype Nexus Community Edition licensing. ([#4842](https://github.com/microsoft/AzureTRE/issues/4842))
