Release Notes

The fixed verison of the API release is now available, the original download links have been replaced with updated Release Notes & the new version of business services.
The new version is 1.6.2.522.

If you have any clients with 1.6.2.520 installed, I recommend upgrading them, though again, the only difference between these versions is the use of the /stock_items/ endpoint without an item or filter being called.

Update re: stockitem endpoint issue.

The Development team are most of the way through getting a fix ready now.  We expect to be able to provide the new release on Monday.

We will be replacing the existing Executable at the download link and updating this post when this has been done, so 1.6.2.520 will no longer be available for accidental download.

We will also be republishing the release notes to reflect additional information.

Regression Issue found with the 1.6.2.520 release:

The Naked Stock Item endpoint:
{{ExoEnv}}/stockitem/

Is returning a complex error.  Symptoms are either:
A very detailed error if using a Local API server.

The message:

{
    "message": "An error has occurred."
}
If using the Relay service.

Workaround options:* You can still call a full list of stock items (but not all attributes) if you call the Stock endpoint:{{ExoEnv}}/stock/
* Alternatively, revert to an earlier version of the Exo Business Services.

Scope limitation:
This issue appears to only affect the naked endpoint, so calls to specific stock items are not affected.
