Summary: The Platform API documentation has been updated using a new method to display the information. The data is be the same, but the new techniques used to build the page should result in greatly improved performance.
Context: The prior technology used to generate the Public API documentation relied on pre-rendering the documentation to HTML and loading those large files all at once. The new approach loads the swagger definition client-side and renders the appropriate resources on the fly.
Impact: Users may notice a API resources take several seconds to load the first time, then loads immediately as navigation throughout the site continues. There is no functional impact to using the documentation.
Date of Change: June 23rd 2021, effective immediately
