Changelog¶
Versioning Policy¶
The IPTO API uses URL-based versioning. All endpoints are prefixed with /v1/. Breaking changes that alter request or response schemas, remove endpoints, or change authentication behavior will increment the version number (e.g., /v2/).
Non-breaking changes are deployed without a version bump. These include:
- Adding new optional request fields
- Adding new response fields
- Adding new endpoints
- Adding new error codes
- Relaxing validation constraints
- Improving error messages
When a new API version is released, the previous version will remain available for a deprecation period to allow migration. Deprecation timelines will be announced in advance.
