Create samples with location
✅ Non-Breaking Change
You can now create samples with location information. Unverified samples can have their location field imported via the API.
Released Dec 21, 2022
Import images using external URL
✅ Non-Breaking Change
Before today, there was no way to import images via API using an external URL.
You can now use external URLs to import images in all endpoints that have the Image parameter. Note that the image URLs must be publicly accessible.
- Create master sample
- Update master sample
- Create inventory sample
- Update inventory sample
The previous method of uploading images to the Sample Images endpoint still exists as of today.
Best Practice Tip
Note that there is an increased processing time to extract images from external URLs.
Therefore, we recommend creating a separate process to add or update images since the increased processing time for could create significant delays of the creation or update of other sample data.

New field Sample Workflow Status
✅ Non-Breaking Change
With this update, you can now edit, create and search Sample Workflow Status. Read more about how the feature works here
- Create inventory Samples POST /v1/inventory-samples
- workflowStatus and can be a string or null (same as empty). Is required only if is set from Sample Field Settings. If it is not locked from Sample Field Settings then any new value will be created else they have to create the values before.
- Search inventory samples GET /v1/inventory-samples
- workflowStatus is an array of strings so they need to send an array. It will try to find any sample that contain any of the values sent in array.
- Read inventory sample GET /v1/inventory-samples/{id}
- workflowStatus and will always output as string back.
- Update inventory sample PUT /v1/inventory-samples/{id}
- workflowStatus and can be a string or null (same as empty). Even if it s required they can remove it from payload and will not be updated. Is the same logic as other field because we allow partial updates. If it is not locked from Sample Field Settings then any new value will be created else they have to create the values before.

Renaming & updating the scope of a the fields loanedFromDelivery & loanedFromDepartment
🚨 Breaking Change
This change affects the following endpoints
- Search inventory samples GET /v1/inventory-samples
- Read inventory sample GET /v1/inventory-samples/{id}
In the response, we have renamed 2 fields
loanedFromDelivery used to display the delivery # from which it was received from, but only in the case of a loan. This field now will include the delivery # regardless of if it is a loan or transfer. Thus, the field has been renamed to receivedFromDelivery
The same applies to the field loanedFromDepartment . This field now will display the department in which the sample had been received from regardless of if it was a loan or transfer. Thus, the field has been renamed to receivedFromDepartment
Search for samples by receivedFromDelivery
✅ Non-Breaking Change
This change affects the following endpoints
- Search inventory samples GET /v1/inventory-samples
Provide a delivery number in the receivedFromDelivery search parameter to get a list of samples that had been received from it.

Support Link & Unlink to Master List
✅ Non-Breaking Change
In this update we expose two new API endpoints to allow our customers to link/unlink an Inventory sample to/from a Master List sample. The endpoints look like this:
To link: POST /v1/inventory-samples/{id}/link
To unlink: POST /v1/inventory-samples/{id}/unlink
- The endpoints are visible only for customers that have master list enabled.
- Calling the link endpoint will try to find a master sample based on the inventory sample external SKU value. If found, it will be linked with the inventory sample, if not, an error will be raised.
- Calling the unlink endpoint will try to break the link between the inventory sample and the master sample, in case there is one, if no link is present, nothing happens ( no error is raised ).
- The above endpoints can be viewed and tested on the API documentation page.
- The API key performing the requests must have sample edit privileges in order to link or unlink, otherwise an error will be raised
Additionally, the Create Inventory Sample (POST /v1/inventory-samples) endpoint has been modified with the following behavior:
When submitting an externalSKU that does not yet exist in master list, instead of raising an error we accept the user input and create an unlinked inventory sample, with the SKU present.
It was already the case that submitting a valid externalSKU while creating a brand new sample (or editing one), would establish a link between the inventory sample and the master list record identified by that SKU. This has not changed.
For complete transparency on Creating/Editing inventory samples in relation to Master List, please refer to the table below:
Action |
Scenario |
Outcome |
|---|---|---|
Create inventory sample |
ExternalSKU not found in master list |
Sample is created with supplied externalSKU but no link to master list. (new) |
Create inventory sample |
ExternalSKU exists in master list |
Sample is created with supplied externalSKU and linked, cascade is fired automatically. |
Edit inventory sample which is not yet linked to master list |
new ExternalSKU not found in master list |
Sample is updated with supplied externalSKU but no link to master list. |
Edit inventory sample which is not yet linked to master list |
new ExternalSKU exists in master list |
Sample is updated with supplied externalSKU and linked, cascade is fired automatically. |
Edit inventory sample which is already linked to master list |
ExternalSKU gets cleared |
Relationship to master list record gets unlinked, sample gets updated not to have an externalSKU |
Edit inventory sample which is already linked to master list |
new ExternalSKU not found in master list |
User receives an error |
Edit inventory sample which is already linked to master list |
new ExternalSKU exists in master list |
Sample is updated with supplied externalSKU and linked to the newly identifier master list record, cascade is fired automatically. |

Send Out reports now support billingCountry
✅ Non-Breaking Change
billingCountry aka Recipient Country is now included in the filters & output of both Send Out Reports sendouts-report & sendout-samples-report
For backward compatibility: both billing and shipment country filters support either string or array (for multiple value searches).
*Documentation has been changed to reflect the array (multi-valued) searching format.*

Requesting API now supports 1 transaction
✅ Non-Breaking Change
We've upgraded the Requesting API to support the concept of a temporary request to prevent validation error timeouts.
Suggested steps to create a request:
1. POST /v2/requests with default payload + property: isTemporary: true would flag the request as temporary and keep it invisible from users as well as prevent any email notifications from being triggered.
2. For each style you wish to mark as requested you:
POST /v2/requests/{requestNumber}/styles (ASYNC)
3. In case any of the requests from step 2 encountered errors, this request should be deleted. You can do so using:
DELETE /v2/requests/{requestNumber}
4. If no errors have occurred in step2, and you transferred to us all requested samples, it is time to convert this request from Temporary to Pending. Making it visible to users and triggering email notifications to all subscribed users. You can do so by doing a
PUT /v2/requests/{requestNumber} with payload: confirmTemporary: true
