Versioning and deprecation policy

Last updated · Changelog · OpenAPI spec · Markdown

The API is versioned in the path: every endpoint lives under https://api.shopsavvy.com/v1. The current and only version is v1.

What can change within v1 without notice (write your client to tolerate these):

  • New endpoints, new optional parameters, and new fields on response objects. Ignore fields you don't recognize.
  • New values in open-ended fields, such as a new condition_grade, a new webhook event type you have not subscribed to, or a new match.by value.
  • More specific error message and action text. Error code values do not change.

What is announced first: anything that could break a working integration, such as removing or renaming a field or endpoint, changing a field's type, or tightening a request limit. These are posted in the changelog (also available as an RSS feed) before they take effect, and marked deprecated in these docs while the old behavior still works. A change that cannot be made compatibly ships under a new version path, with v1 kept running alongside it.

StageWhat it means
CurrentDocumented and recommended.
DeprecatedStill works and still supported, marked in these docs and the changelog with its replacement. Move to the replacement.
RemovedAnswers with an error. Only after a deprecation period announced in the changelog.

Legacy paths

Older SDK versions call these paths. They are supported and behave exactly like their replacements; use the replacements in new code.

Legacy pathUse instead
GET /v1/products/detailsGET /v1/products
GET /v1/products/historyGET /v1/products/offers/history
POST /v1/products/schedulePUT /v1/products/scheduled
DELETE /v1/products/scheduleDELETE /v1/products/scheduled

The price-history parameters start_date and end_date are likewise accepted as aliases for start and end.
