+## December 10, 2024 release
+
+### SDK user location by IP address
+
+As of November 26, 2024, Braze will detect user locations from the geolocated country using the IP address from the start of the first SDK session. Braze will use the IP address to set the country value on user profiles that are created via the SDK, and that IP based country setting will be available during and after the first session. Refer to [Location tracking]({{site.baseurl}}/user_guide/engagement_tools/locations_and_geofences/location_tracking/) for more details.
+
+### Elevated Access setting
+
+[Elevated Access]({{site.baseurl}}/user_guide/administrative/app_settings/company_settings/security_settings/#elevated-access) adds an extra layer of security for sensitive actions in your Braze dashboard. When active, users need to re-verify their account before exporting a segment or viewing an API key. To use Elevated Access, go to **Settings** > **Admin Settings** > **Security Settings** and toggle it on.
+
+### Permission for viewing personally identifiable information (PII)
+
+For admins, you can [allow users to view PII]({{site.baseurl}}/user_guide/administrative/app_settings/manage_your_braze_users/user_permissions/#list-of-permissions) as defined by your company in the dashboard in message previews that use Liquid variables to access user properties. 
+
+For workspaces, you can allow users to view PII as defined by your company in the dashboard, or view user profiles but redact fields your company has identified as PII.

-{% multi_lang_include release_type.md release="Early access" %}
-
-[Just-in-time provisioning]({{site.baseurl}}/user_guide/administrative/access_braze/single_sign_on/saml_jit) works with SAML SSO to allow new dashboard users to create a Braze account on their first sign in. This eliminates the need for administrators to manually create an account for a new dashboard user, choose their permissions, assign them to a workspace, and wait for them to activate their account.
-
-#### Permission sets and roles
-
-Use [permission sets]({{site.baseurl}}/user_guide/administrative/app_settings/manage_your_braze_users/user_permissions/#permission-sets-and-roles) to bundle permissions related to specific subject areas or actions. These permission sets can be applied to dashboard users who need the same access across different workspaces.

-#### Cloud Data Ingestion Segments
-
-Braze [Cloud Data Ingestion segments]({{site.baseurl}}/user_guide/engagement_tools/segments/segment_extension/cdi_segments) allow you to write SQL that directly queries your own data warehouse by using data made available via your CDI connections, and create a group of users that can be targeted within Braze.
