### Breaking changes
#### Constant variables
In order to minimize the confusion with Constant variable usage, we've removed the ability to make Constant variables visible. This change will also migrate __`all`__ existing __`visible`__ Constant variables to Textbox variables because which we think this is a more appropriate type of variable for this use case.
Issue [#29407](https://github.com/grafana/grafana/issues/29407)
#### Plugin compatibility
We have upgraded AngularJS from version 1.6.6 to 1.8.2. Due to this upgrade some old angular plugins might stop working and will require a small update. This is due to the deprecation and removal of pre-assigned bindings. So if your custom angular controllers expect component bindings in the controller constructor you need to move this code to an `$onInit` function. For more details on how to migrate AngularJS code open the [migration guide](https://docs.angularjs.org/guide/migration) and search for **pre-assigning bindings**.
In order not to break all angular panel plugins and data sources we have some custom [angular inject behavior](https://github.com/grafana/grafana/blob/master/public/app/core/injectorMonkeyPatch.ts) that makes sure that bindings for these controllers are still set before constructor is called so many old angular panels and data source plugins will still work. Issue [#28736](https://github.com/grafana/grafana/issues/28736)
### Deprecations
#### Query variable value group tags
This option to group query variable values into groups by tags has been an experimental feature since it was introduced. It was introduced to work around the lack of tags support in time series databases at the time. Now that tags (ie. labels) are the norm there is no longer any great need for this feature. This feature will be removed in Grafana v8 later this year. Issue [#30160](https://github.com/grafana/grafana/issues/30160)
### Plugin development fixes & changes
* **AngularPlugins**: Angular controller events emitter is now a separate emitter and not the same as PanelModel events emitter. [#30379](https://github.com/grafana/grafana/pull/30379), [@torkelo](https://github.com/torkelo)
* **FieldConfig API**: Add ability to hide field option or disable it from the overrides. [#29879](https://github.com/grafana/grafana/pull/29879), [@dprokop](https://github.com/dprokop)

- **Plugins**: Fix failing plugin builds because of wrong internal import. [#30439](https://github.com/grafana/grafana/pull/30439), [@aocenas](https://github.com/aocenas)
#### Constant variables
<!-- 7.4.0-beta1 START -->
# 7.4.0-beta1 (2021-01-20)
In order to minimize the confusion with Constant variable usage, we've removed the ability to make Constant variables visible. This change will also migrate __`all`__ existing __`visible`__ Constant variables to Textbox variables because which we think this is a more appropriate type of variable for this use case.
Issue [#29407](https://github.com/grafana/grafana/issues/29407)

### Breaking changes
#### Constant variables
In order to minimize the confusion with Constant variable usage, we've removed the ability to make Constant variables visible. This change will also migrate **`all`** existing **`visible`** Constant variables to Textbox variables because which we think this is a more appropriate type of variable for this use case.

### Deprecations
#### Query variable value group tags
This option to group query variable values into groups by tags has been an experimental feature since it was introduced. It was introduced to work around the lack of tags support in time series databases at the time. Now that tags (ie. labels) are the norm there is no longer any great need for this feature. This feature will be removed in Grafana v8 later this year. Issue [#30160](https://github.com/grafana/grafana/issues/30160)
