Changelog

API Features

• Apple Pay can now be used to pay for orders placed using the Sync API! Using Apple Pay can significantly improve checkout rates compared to a regular credit card form. Check out our new Apply Pay integration guide for instructions.
  • Apple Pay for Sell Anything API is on our roadmap.
  • Google Pay support for both APIs is on our roadmap.
• Developers now receive PRODUCT_UPDATED webhooks whenever products they have requested tracking for have their data updated. This removes the need to poll our API for changes via cron.
  • This new event currently only works for Sell Anything API products, but we are working on having Sync API products use this new webhook as well to unify behavior.
• Developers now receive a SHOPIFY_PRODUCT_DELETED webhook when products are removed or unpublished from Shopify stores they are integrated with via the Sync API.
• Rye now sends an ORDER_FAILED webhook when 3DS authentication times out or fails. This removes the need to poll checkoutByCartID to identify this form of order failure.

Developer Console

• You can now view your current API usage and limits from the Requests tab.
• Fixed orders containing Amazon products incorrectly showing the current product price rather than the purchase price.

Changes

• Rye API operations will now resolve Shopify store domains to the correct canonical store domain, which improves our data quality and makes tracking Shopify products and stores easier. You can find technical details on this behavior here.
• The requestProductByURL mutation has been deprecated in favor of marketplace-specific requestAmazonProductByURL and requestShopifyProductByURL mutations.
• requestStoreByURL now returns descriptive error codes when things go wrong, which makes debugging easier.
• The requestId field on the AmazonStore and ShopifyStore objects has been deprecated in favor of orderId for improved clarity.
• ShopifyVariant.weight field is now typed as Float instead of an Int, as it is possible for an item’s weight to be a decimal value.

Fixes

• Shopping carts containing only digital products now have their cost calculated correctly
• Running requestStoreByURL for a store you have previously requested while at the API usage limit will no longer error.
• The SHOPIFY_APP_CONNECTED webhook will now fire when a merchant who has already installed the Rye app follows your installation link.
