 # Changelog
 
+### 2.10.0
+- [NEW] Support HMAC signature authentication for feed endpoints and CLI (`--no-sign-api-key`).
+- [UPDATE] Officially support all available feed parameters and CLI options across real-time threat feed endpoints (including `--frombeginning`, risk filters, and IP-specific filters).
+- [FIX] Prevent authentication credentials from being passed as plain-text query parameters when header or HMAC authentication is enabled.
+- [FIX] Remove incorrect requirement for `sessionID`, `after`, or `before` parameters when using the feed download endpoint.
+
 ### 2.9.0

+Authentication
+===================
+
+The wrapper supports two authentication modes, selected automatically based on the product:
+
+| Product | Default method | Params sent |
+|---|---|---|
+| Standard API (Iris, Whois, etc.) | HMAC-SHA256 signed | `api_username`, `timestamp`, `signature` as query params |
+| Real-Time Threat Feeds (RTTF) | Header authentication | `X-Api-Key` header |
+
+RTTF feeds also support HMAC signing as an opt-in via `always_sign_api_key=True` — see the RTTF section below.

+- `header_authentication`: by default, all RTTF endpoints (both `feed` and `download`) use API Header Authentication, sending the API key via the `X-Api-Key` header. Set this to `False` to pass the API key as a query parameter instead.

     api = API(USERNAME, KEY, header_authentication=False)

+- `always_sign_api_key`: set to `True` to use HMAC-SHA256 signed authentication instead of header auth. When set, `header_authentication` automatically defaults to `False` — both methods do not fire simultaneously. The signing algorithm is identical to the standard API: `HMAC-SHA256(key, username + timestamp + path)`, with `timestamp` and `signature` sent as query parameters.

+The `download` endpoint returns a standard JSON response (not a stream) listing available S3 batch files. Time parameters (`sessionID`, `after`, `before`) are **not** required for download calls.

+
+### Feed parameters
+
+The feed methods accept the following parameters, grouped by purpose. Availability depends on the feed (see the notes below the table).
+
+#### Session Management Parameters
+
+- `sessionID`: A custom string used to distinguish between different sessions. Required when using `fromBeginning`.
+- `after`: Start of the query window. Either an integer offset relative to now in seconds (e.g. `-60`), or an absolute ISO 8601 UTC datetime (`YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ`).
+- `before`: End of the query window (inclusive). Either an integer from `-1` to `-432000` (seconds before now), or an absolute ISO 8601 UTC datetime. The query window covers at most the most recent 5 days; a value older than 5 days returns no records.
+- `fromBeginning`: Boolean (`true`/`false`/`1`/`0`, default `false`). Requires a valid `sessionID`. When `true` on the first request of a new session, returns the first hour of data in the time window instead of the last. Using it with an existing `sessionID` returns an HTTP 406; using it without a `sessionID` or with a non-boolean value returns an HTTP 422.
+
+    ```python
+    api = API(USERNAME, KEY)
+    api.nod(sessionID="my-new-session-id", after=-3600, fromBeginning=True)
+    ```
+
+#### Filter Parameters
+
+- `domain`: Filter for an exact domain or a substring contained within a domain by prefixing or suffixing your substring with `*`.
+- `overall_min`, `malware_min`, `phishing_min`, `spam_min`, `proximity_min`: Integer risk score thresholds (range `1` to `99`, optional). Available on the `realtime_domain_risk` and `domainhotlist` feeds only. When multiple are supplied they act as a logical AND — a domain must meet ALL specified thresholds to be returned.
+
+    ```python
+    api = API(USERNAME, KEY)
+    api.domainhotlist(after=-3600, overall_min=70, phishing_min=50)
+    ```
+
+- IP feed filters (available on the `iprisk` and `iphotlist` feeds only). All are optional integers/strings and combine as a logical AND:
+    - Domain activity & volume: `pdns_resolutions_min`, `bad_pdns_resolutions_min` (positive integers, distinct/bad domains resolving to the IP in the last 24 hours) and `total_domains_max` (positive integer; caps total hosted domains to filter out superhosters like CDNs).
+    - Threat intelligence & combined risk percentages: `third_party_threats_min` (positive integer), plus `all_threats_combined_percent_min`, `combined_phishing_percent_min`, `combined_malware_percent_min`, `combined_spam_percent_min` (percentages `0` to `100` of hosted domains confirmed or predicted malicious).
+    - Confirmed threat percentages: `all_threats_percent_min`, `percent_phishing_min`, `percent_malware_min`, `percent_spam_min` (percentages `0` to `100` of hosted domains actively confirmed).
+    - Infrastructure & geolocation: `asn` (integer, digits only — no `AS` prefix or wildcards), `organization` (exact name, no wildcards) and `country_code` (case-sensitive two-letter code, e.g. `CN`, `US`, `NL`).
+
+    ```python
+    api = API(USERNAME, KEY)
+    api.iprisk(after=-3600, bad_pdns_resolutions_min=5, total_domains_max=1000, country_code="US")
+    ```
+
+#### Result formatting parameters
+
+- `output_format`: `csv` or `jsonl` (default `jsonl`). Not available on the `domainrdap` feed. `csv` is not available for `download` endpoints.
+- `headers`: When `csv` output is used, adds a header row to the first line of the response.
+- `top`: Positive integer from `1` to `1,000,000,000` limiting the number of results in the response payload. Ignored for the `download` endpoint.
+
+#### Download-only parameters
+
+These parameters are only accepted when `endpoint="download"`. They are ignored for the `feed` endpoint.
+
+- `limit`: Maximum number of files to return in the response.
+- `page`: Zero-indexed page of results to return. Available on `realtime_domain_risk`, `domainhotlist`, `iphotlist`, and `iprisk`.
+- `prefix`: Filter files by date prefix (e.g. `"2026-08-"`). Available on `realtime_domain_risk`, `domainhotlist`, `iphotlist`, and `iprisk`.
+
+```python
+api = API(USERNAME, KEY)
+api.iphotlist(endpoint="download", limit=10, page=0, prefix="2026-08-")
+```
+
+## Handling iterative response from RTTF endpoints:
 
-Since we may dealing with large feeds datasets, the python wrapper uses `generator` for efficient memory handling. Therefore, we need to iterate through the `generator` if we're accessing the partial results of the feeds data.
