Dapr
v1.16.17Orchestration & ManagementJul 10, 2026
Dapr v1.16.17 is a bugfix patch that relaxes overly strict character validation in the Scheduler service for actor reminders and jobs. Reminder names, job names, and actor IDs may now contain characters like `|` and `@`, aligning Scheduler validation with the rest of Dapr's API. No breaking changes or security fixes.
Key changes (3)
- Scheduler now accepts a broader range of characters in reminder names, job names, and actor IDs (any except `/`, `\`, `#`, `?`, control characters, `.`, and `..`), fixing registration failures for names containing `|`, `@`, and similar characters
- Validation error messages corrected to accurately describe disallowed characters instead of incorrectly claiming only lowercase was permitted
- Fixed reminder listing for actors whose IDs contain `||`
