Release Notes

Services

The service version is only incremented if significant breaking changes are made in the signature of one or more existing service methods.

Version 3 (Released on March 3rd, 2012.)

  • 1,323 total end points/service methods are now available.
  • Some metadata was not correctly populated. For example, previously there was no easy way to get a list of IndicatorDescriptions for a given LocaleLevel.

Version 2, Update 2 (Updated on June 3rd, 2011.)

  • Added Filter methods which allow full control over the data which is requested and returned from all service methods.

Version 2, Update 1 (Updated on May 10th, 2011.)

  • Added support for JSON responses from methods. Set the request header "Accept" to "application/json" to receive responses in this format.
  • Added support for WWW-Form-UrlEncoded responses from methods. Set the request header "Accept" to "application/www-form-urlencoded" to receive responses in this format.
  • Added "Version" service method which returns version information about the HIW and Services.
  • RESTful responses now include links to assist in obtaining other related data.

Version 2 (Released on March 4th, 2011.)

  • Responses no longer include string representations of child objects. For example, Indicator.AgeRange no longer exists - the AgeRange will have to be queried using Indicator.AgeRangeID.
  • Exposed more service end methods to allow better selection of Indicator data.
  • Methods to fetch an object based on one or more unique fields of the object. For instance, you may now fetch an AgeRange by Name.
