@@ -14,6 +14,7 @@ This project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.htm
    This removes the package dependencies of this bridge from the rest of the OpenTelemetry based project. (#1038)
 - Renamed `go.opentelemetry.io/otel/api/standard` package to `go.opentelemetry.io/otel/semconv` to avoid the ambiguous and generic name `standard` and better describe the package as containing OpenTelemetry semantic conventions. (#1016)
 - The environment variable used for resource detection has been changed from `OTEL_RESOURCE_LABELS` to `OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES` (#1042)
+- Replace `WithSyncer` with `WithBatcher` in examples. (#1044)
 
 ### Removed
