Cheers! ## Collection updates 🪄 ### community.hrobot [Felix Fontein](https://matrix.to/#/@felixfontein:matrix.org) contributed > community.hrobot 2.5.0 ([community.hrobot/CHANGELOG.md at main · ansible-collections/community.hrobot · GitHub](https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.hrobot/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md#v2-5-0)) has been released. It contains updated `storagebox*` modules that support the new Hetzner storagebox API. Note that Hetzner will sunset the old Robot API for storage boxes at the end of July 2025, so if you are using these modules, please make sure to upgrade to 2.5.0 and switch to the new API by creating and using a token (instead of username + password). If you encounter problems with the existing functionality (that is not explicitly documented as no longer working, like generating random passwords), please create an issue in the repository’s issue tracker ([GitHub · Where software is built](https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.hrobot/issues)).
