 * direct: Fix resolving a resource reference that is used more than once within the same field ([#5558](https://github.com/databricks/cli/pull/5558)).
 * Bundle variable references now accept Unicode letters in path segments (e.g. `${var.变量}`). ([#5532](https://github.com/databricks/cli/pull/5532))
 * Ignore remote changes for vector search direct_access_index_spec.schema_json to prevent drift when the backend normalizes the schema ([#5481](https://github.com/databricks/cli/pull/5481)).
+* Remove hidden, never-functional `--existing-dashboard-id`, `--existing-dashboard-path`, `--existing-alert-id`, and `--existing-genie-space-id` alias flags from `bundle generate`; use the documented `--existing-id` / `--existing-path` flags instead ([#5591](https://github.com/databricks/cli/pull/5591)).
