New API releases

Existing API updates

  • Subscriptions API:

    • ResumeSubscription. This new endpoint enables applications to resume deactivated subscriptions. After a subscription is created, there are events that can make a subscription non-billable, causing Square to deactivate the subscription. A seller can also resume deactivated subscriptions in the Seller Dashboard. Applications can call ListSubscriptionEvents to determine why Square deactivated a subscription.
  • Customers API:

    • The Invoices API has moved to the GA state.

    • Invoice object:

      • A new required accepted_payment_methods field that defines the methods of payment that customers can use to pay an invoice on the Square-hosted invoice page. Valid values are defined in the new InvoiceAcceptedPaymentMethods enum. For more information, see the migration notes.
      • A new subscription_id field, which is included in invoices created for subscription billing.
  • Loyalty API: (beta)

    • RetrieveLoyaltyProgram endpoint. This new endpoint accepts a program ID or the main keyword and returns the loyalty program in a seller's account. For more information, see Retrieve a loyalty program. This endpoint is preferred over the ListLoyaltyPrograms endpoint.

    • Introduced a new mapping implementation for loyalty accounts:

      • LoyaltyAccount object. Added the mapping field (of type LoyaltyAccountMapping), which is used to associate the loyalty account with a buyer. This field is recommended over the mappings field.
      • LoyaltyAccountMapping object. Added the phone_number field to represent a phone number mapping. This field is recommended over the type and value fields.

Version 9.1.0.20210317 (2021-03-17)

Existing API updates

  • Payments API:

    • CreatePayment. Until now, the CreatePayment endpoint supported only taking card payments. In this release, the API now supports cash and external payments. For more information, see Take Payments.
    • UpdatePayment. This new endpoint enables developers to change the payment amount and tip amount after a payment is created. For more information, see Update Payments.
  • Invoices API:

    • InvoiceDeliveryMethod enum. Added the read-only SMS value.
    • InvoiceRequestMethod enum (deprecated). Added the read-only SMS, SMS_CHARGE_CARD_ON_FILE, and SMS_CHARGE_BANK_ON_FILE values for backward compatibility.

    These values direct Square to send invoices and receipts to customers using SMS (text message). SMS settings can be configured from first-party Square applications only; they cannot be configured from the Invoices API. Square does not send invoice reminders when using SMS to communicate with customers.

  • Terminal API:

    • TerminalCheckout. Previously, TerminalCheckout only supported tapped, dipped, or swiped credit cards. It now supports manual card entry and e-money. Added the payment_type field to denote a request for a manually entered payment card or an e-money payment.
    • TerminalCheckoutPaymentType. A new enum for the Terminal checkout payment types that can be requested.
    • E-money support is now available for Terminal checkout requests in Japan.

    • Updated the OkHttp dependency to version 4.9.0.
    • Fixed a NullPointerException when passing an empty order ID to the UpdateOrder method.

SDKs

  • All Square SDKs:

    By default, all SDKs send requests to Square's production (https://connect.squareup.com) or sandbox (https://connect.squareupsandbox.com) hosts based on the client's environment parameter.

    You now have the option to use a custom URL instead. To use a custom URL, follow the example for your language to set the environment parameter to custom and the customUrl parameter to your URL:

    • Java

      new SquareClient.Builder()
        .environment(Environment.CUSTOM)
        .customUrl("https://example.com")
    • .NET

      new Square.SquareClient.Builder()
        .Environment(Environment.Custom)
        .CustomUrl("https://example.com")
    • Node.js

      new Client({
        environment: Environment.Custom,
        customUrl: 'https://example.com'
      });
    • PHP

      new Square\SquareClient([
        'environment' => Environment::CUSTOM,
        'customUrl' => 'https://example.com',
      ]);
    • Python

      Client(
        environment = 'custom',
        custom_url = 'https://example.com',)
    • Ruby

      Square::Client.new(
        environment: 'custom',
        custom_url: 'https://example.com'
      });
  • Square .NET SDK:

    Square has overridden the Equals and GetHashCode methods for models:

    • In the Equals override, Square has implemented a field-level comparison.
    • The Square GetHashCode override now ensures that hashes are deterministic and unique for each object.
  • Square Node.js SDK:

    Endpoints that return 64-bit integers now return a BigInt object instead of a Number object.

  • Connect Node.js SDK: (deprecated)

    The deprecated Connect Node.js SDK is in the security maintenance state. It does not receive any bug fixes or API updates from the Square version 2021-02-26 release. However, the SDK will receive support and security patches until it is retired (end of life) in the second quarter of 2021. For more information, including steps for migrating to the Square Node.js SDK, see the Connect SDK README.
