What's New with the 12 May Release

This week we have rolled out several important new updates, features, and fixes.

API Updates:


  • Merchants now have the option to select either 4 digit or six digit PINs for employees. This setting is exposed through the REST API from the /v3/merchants/PWPH981CWGAX6/properties  endpoint under the pinLength field.
  • REST API requests with expansion query values that include non-letters will now return 400 Error 'Unable to parse expandedField'.


Dashboard Updates:


  • App package names are now based on the first uploaded package, instead of being set before uploading. Be sure to review the Android documentation as there have been several updates: https://docs.clover.com/build/android-apps/.
  • Android app push notifications are now constrained to alphanumeric characters, underscores and hyphens.


Bug Fixes:


  • New EU developer merchants are no longer automatically assigned a region of en-us.
  • Web app installation redirects now respect app's default response type selection.
  • Fixed bug preventing developers from removing an app's smart receipts URL once it had been entered.

What's new with the 27 April Release

Many of you will have noticed we have rolled out a new version of the developer docs this week at https://docs.clover.com. So be sure to keep your eyes out for updates there in the coming weeks.

API Updates:

  • Webhook subscriptions using SSL (strongly recommended) will no longer receive webhook alerts if their SSL certificate is not valid.

Dashboard Updates:

  • The POST v3/merchants/{mId}/shifts/csv endpoint has been replaced by the GET v3/merchants/{mId}/shifts.csv endpoint, which allows up to a 9 week time range.
  • The developer signature file for uploaded APKs must now be named META-INF/CERT.RSAU.
