Notes about changes and features in each new release of the API.

Release Notes: Sprint 54

Notes A note about proposed endpoints: we’re no longer including proposed endpoints in the specification you see on the Developer Portal. We used to include these (suitably marked and labeled) as a way to communicate the details of proposed changes outside sprint reviews. Our new standard is that the OpenAPI specification will only reflect what’s …

Release notes: Sprint 53

Notes Some special announcements this time; Special Characters in identifiers Workday reference IDs can sometimes have special characters in them, like customer invoice AR-0001907-08/04/22. The date with the slashes is part of the ID. We can expect to see identifiers like this coming from Workday. If you try to query the API for that ID, …

Release notes: Sprint 52

Notes This sprint we found and fixed a bug that affected the links section of all API responses. These are usually used for navigating between pages when there are too many results to fit in a single response. The bug caused those links to return an error message instead of the expected data. This is …

Release Notes: Sprint 51

Notes This sprint we added expenditure treatments to Internal Service Deliveries (ISDs). Most ISDs won’t have this value set, but for those where it is, you can now get this value from the API. We also did some cleanup on the tax codes endpoint, mostly making the types in the specification better match the way …

Release notes: Sprint 50

Notes Some SIS users have reported that expected testing data is missing from the API. We’re currently investigating this problem with the ATP Workday developers and awaiting a true-up file for Cost Centers (CC), as some test CC were originally added without a Company or affliation with a Cost Center Hierarchy and do not appear …

Release notes: Sprint 49

Notes Some SIS users have reported that expected testing data is missing from the API. We’re currently investigating this problem with the ATP Workday developers. We’ve re-imported our data and believe that we’re accurately representing what’s in the Wisc7 tenant, but please do contact us if you find that the API is missing any records …

Release notes: Sprint 48

Notes We have updated the two new functional endpoints we mentioned last week: catalog items and tax codes. Catalog items now has additional string filters (STARTS_WITH, CONTAINS, ENDS_WITH) available and tax codes are in progress to split out the % as an available data element. We aslo did some internal work on the removal of …

Release notes: Sprint 47

Notes We recently had an interruption where data for gifts, programs, and projects was unavailable in the API. We’ve resolved those issue with our data supplier and those endpoints are working correctly again. Thanks for your patience while we worked this out. We have two new functional endpoints: catalog items and tax codes. These are …

Release notes: Sprint 46

Notes We started this sprint by onboarding another new team member and started off by addressing some bugs related to duplicate addresses and representation of very small numbers: We also finished up the endpoint for Customer Invoices. You can access this in the API now. We also implemented filters for ISDs: Company, date range, status. …
