Tidying up

New updates and improvements to Herald's API.

Fixes and improvements

This week we focused on tidying up. We improved performance and dealt with a few bugs:

  • We improved the ordering of properties in our API response so that its easier for developers to read.
  • We fixed a bug that returned an ‘active’ status for a quote without a premium under certain (rare) circumstances.
  • An update to how we store requests and responses improves our ability to provide support quickly and enables us to share logs with customers in the future.
  • We updated our API schema to make certain fields nullable so that there are no empty objects {} or arrays [].
  • Our API documentation now explains the purpose of the beta branch: previewing upcoming changes to our API.
