Square v2.8.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2018-05-24 // almost 6 years ago

  • ⚡️ We have added sorting functionality to the Connect v2 Customer API, updated the Connect v1 Payments API to include information about surcharges and 👌 improvements to the Item data type.

    🆕 New feature: Customer API (Connect v2)

    • ListCustomers endpoint — now provides the ability to sort customers by their creation date using the sort_field and sort_order parameters.

    🆕 New features: Payments API (Connect v1)

    The Payments API now returns information about surcharges applied to payments. The new functionality introduces the following new data types:

    • SurchargeMoney datatype — The total of all surcharges applied to the payment.
    • Surcharges datatype — A list of all surcharges associated with the payment.
    • Surcharge datatype — A surcharge that is applied to the payment. One example of a surcharge is auto-gratuity, which is a fixed-rate surcharge applied to every payment, often based on party size.

    We are constantly evaluating new languages to add. In the meantime, if the 👍 language you need is not supported, you can use our [Swagger pipeline](<%= articles__client_libraries_path%>#generatingwithswagger) to generate a custom SDK or continue sending JSON to the endpoint URLs directly.

    👌 Improvement: Item (Connect v1)

    Item will now provide two new properties:

    • category_id — indicates if an item can be added to pickup orders from the merchant's online store
    • available_for_pickup — indicates the item's category (if any).
