CARDB Services - Release Notes

This page describes the available versions, services and endpoints for accessing CARDB data.

The development team makes every effort to maintain compatibility across different versions of the API.
However, in order to continue to provide a modern service, as well as for operational reasons, we occasionally make changes that may interact with existing features.
At such times it may be necessary, especially for more advanced applications, to make adjustments to code using the API so that your code continues to work as expected.

V1.0

The main focus of this version was to separate the normal methods from the methods that make up PSLS (Product Specification Lookup Service), in order to have more granular version control for upcoming changes.
On top, the method to return all grade equipment has been split up into two separate methods. One for retrieving the grade options and one for retrieving the grade accessories.

This is a port of the original implementation of the CARDB service, but now running in the Cloud for increased performance and scalability.
There are some subtle changes to the cloud-based implementation, but these are trivial and only affect client applications using SOAP/XML.
