Hey Everyone! 👋  
We’ve now rolled out `cisco.iosxr` **12.4.0**

The changes in this include:

- Cleaned up deprecated ansible-core imports and `warnings` in `exit_json` across iosxr modules for newer ansible-core compatibility
- Fixed `bgp_global` neighbor shutdown parsing / idempotency (`no shutdown` handling)

You can check out the full changelog and details here: **[Release v12.4.0 · ansible-collections/cisco.iosxr · GitHub](https://github.com/ansible-collections/cisco.iosxr/releases/tag/v12.4.0)**

Thanks to everyone who reported issues and contributed fixes! ❤
