  • Action Required: You can now simulate bank account operations with all supported PSPs, expanding your testing capabilities.

4. Input Normalization on Endpoints ✨

  • What Changed: Inputs for certain POST and PATCH endpoints are now normalized to match specific character patterns to enhance data consistency.
  • Affected Endpoints: Various user and corporate account creation and update endpoints.
  • Action Required: Ensure that your input data complies with the new validation rules to prevent errors.
