API Updates

Consent optimisation.

The number of user consents published over our API has grown rapidly. To more efficiently manage these larger volumes, the following end-point changes are now released:

  • ‘Get Consents’, pagination enabled.

Where a ‘Get Consent’ request returns more than 20 consents, we will now enable the pagination functionality previously dormant on this end-point. This will reduce response times for larger requests, as users can now page through or filter larger volumes more efficiently. More details of how to use the Get Consent end-point can be found in our Yapily API guide.

  • ‘Get User Consents’, will remain available, but given the optimisations above, customers are advised to switch to the above ‘Get Consents’ end-point if not already.

Additional Enhancements

Encryption improvements.

Platform enhancements to distributed client keys and support auto-rotation.

If you’re not already using our API services but interested to learn more please visit our Yapily Dashboard or reach out to us at hello@yapily.com. We love helping our customers build exciting new products!
