 ### Bugs Fixed
 
+- Fix the issue that data was persisted according to an incorrect schema/in an incorrect format ([#20518](https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-python/issues/20518))
+
+  `SecretReferenceConfigurationSetting` in 1.2.0 used "secret_uri" rather than "uri" as the schema keywords which 
+  broken inter-operation of `SecretReferenceConfigurationSetting` between SDK and the portal. 
+  
+  Please:
+  - Use 1.3.0+ for any `SecretReferenceConfigurationSetting` uses.
+  - Call a get method for existing `SecretReferenceConfigurationSetting`s and set them back to correct the format.
+
 ### Other Changes
