 # vNEXT
 
+- `apollo-server`: Support `onHealthCheck` in the `ApolloServer` constructor in the same way as `cors` is supported.  This contrasts with the `-express`, `-hapi`, etc. variations which accept this parameter via their `applyMiddleware` methods and will remain as-is.  [PR #2672](https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-server/pull/2672)
 - core: Expose SHA-256 hex hash digest of the Engine API key to plugins, when available, as `engine.apiKeyHash`. [PR# 2685](https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-server/pull/2685)
 - `apollo-datasource-rest`: If another `Content-type` is already set on the response, don't overwrite it with `application/json`, allowing the user's initial `Content-type` to prevail. [PR #2520](https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-server/issues/2035)
