 - [#1426](https://github.com/rails-api/active_model_serializers/pull/1426) Add ActiveModelSerializers.config.default_includes (@empact)
 
 Fixes:
+- [#1754](https://github.com/rails-api/active_model_serializers/pull/1754) Fixes #1759, Grape integration, improves serialization_context
+  missing error message on pagination. Document overriding CollectionSerializer#paginated?. (@bf4)
+  Moved serialization_context creation to Grape formatter, so resource serialization works without explicit calls to the `render` helper method.
+  Added Grape collection tests. (@onomated)
 - [#1287](https://github.com/rails-api/active_model_serializers/pull/1287) Pass `fields` options from adapter to serializer. (@vasilakisfil)
 - [#1710](https://github.com/rails-api/active_model_serializers/pull/1710) Prevent association loading when `include_data` option
   is set to `false`. (@groyoh)
