It's a new year and we have some new functionality to kick off 2023! But before we begin, if you’re a bank or a credit union, don’t forget to participate in our 2023 benchmarking survey! You’ll be the first to get report results.
Also, beginning in February, our release updates will be made available on the second Thursday of each month. Why the extra day? This enables us to provide additional details and visuals in our release updates while ensuring they still get to you in a timely fashion.
Now, onto January’s release.

Please refer to our B2B API documentation for info related to our APIs and connect with your customer success manager if your organization would like to consider this functionality.
Updated time filters for API endpoints
Categories, Clients, and Users APIs have an updated time filter.
