+
+Added support for version 6 of Azure common types, including changes to private links and managed identity
+
+## Breaking changes
+
+### Removed `@nextLink` decorator from Azure.core
+
+Specs should use the core decorator for `@nextLink`
+
+#### Before
+
+```TypeSpec
+model WidgetPage {
+  items: Widget[];
+
+  @Azure.Core.nextLink
+  nextLink: string;
+}
+```
+
+#### After
+
+```TypeSpec
+model WidgetPage {
+  items: Widget[];
+  //In the TypeSpec namespace
+  @nextLink
+  nextLink: string;
+}
+```
+
