Changelog

This quarter’s newsletter highlights the annual Beta data refresh, an update regarding user owned trees, and the changelog.

Updates to logging, docs and improvements to infrastructure.

Two new Endpoints

Fixes for issues in Change History not returning the proper Memory URI and not handling the addition of a second parent to a Child And Parents Relationship properly.

• Fixed the descriptor link in sourceDescriptions array where the "type": "http://gedcomx.org/Record"

• Tree to Tree Matches - Added support for accept, decline, and switch to pending.

• Added Bulk OrdinanceStatusRollup endpoint.

A new endpoint lets you quickly check whether sources have been changed since a given timestamp. This is especially useful if your application stores local copies of sources and needs to keep that data up to date.

• Issue where Tree search returned link with duplicate query parameters that caused errors.
• Tree Change History now supports custom events.
• Various optimizations and improvements to infrastructure.

A new API feature is now available to link matching persons across FamilySearch trees. See the Tree to Tree Linking guide to learn more. This feature is in beta, and the interface may change over the next 60 days.
