2021.1 Release Notes
Release Notes For 2021.1
Updated 4/01/21
Events in a nutshell are webhooks. Webhooks are notifications which are sent down to a specified URL whenever a specific action has occurred. Anytime an action is triggered, we'll send a HTTP POST payload to the webhook's configured URL(s).
You can now use your Enterprise Hub to manage pricing plans and subscriptions, as well as calculate/generate invoices for APIs (quota used, overages, amount due) that use our gateway/proxy but not charge using a credit card. You can either bill your customers (API consumers and/or teams) manually via invoice or automate it by integrating with your accounts receivable solutions.
Custom Extensions V1 is the first step of many that we are taking to provide you with the ability to customize your Enterprise Hub. V1 of this feature enables you to add a new tab to the Marketplace API Playground.
To better support your ability to manage identities within your Enterprise Hub, you can now set up an IdP integration in a self-service fashion from the Hub Admin Panel. This initial release focuses on authentication only and will expand to support authorization in future releases
Admin Panel Audit Logs V1 will provide enterprise admins with the ability to track any create, update, and deletes that occur within your Admin Panel.
You can now delete users via Admin Panel by navigating the Users Tab.
Multiple Media Type Support for Playground
Previously Provider Dashboard and Marketplace Endpoints Playground were limited to designating one media type in a request body spec. Now we've allowed the option for multiple media types (including application/octet-stream) to be used in conjunction with a single request that better aligns with OpenAPI.
RapidAPI now allows publishing Kafka APIs on the marketplace. This allows discovering Kafka topics, viewing the topic configuration and schema, as well as consuming/producing records from a browser.
Localization Browser Based
To better support the language needs of our customers, we've updated our platform to be more compatible with browser translation tools (e.g. Google Translate), so that RapidAPI's core UI can be reliably localized in a target language without distorting important technical content critical to the API spec.
Uniform Navigation
As we continue to make incremental improvements in consistency of our user experience, the Logo in the top left corner will take you back to the marketplace page.
Hide Code Snippets
To support those who are focused primarily on providing a comprehensive catalog and rely less on testing from the browser, we’ve added the flexibility to hide the Code Snippet section on the API Listing.
