Existing API updates

• Orders API

  • Order object. The total_tip_money field is now GA.

  • CreateOrder, UpdateOrder, and BatchRetrieveOrders. These APIs now support merchant-scoped endpoints (for example, the CreateOrder endpoint POST /v2/orders). The location-scoped variants of these endpoints (for example, the CreateOrder endpoint POST /v2/locations/{location_id}/orders) continue to work, but these endpoints are now deprecated. You should use the merchant-scoped endpoints (you provide the location information in the request body).

• Labor API

  • Migrate from Employees to Team Members. The Employees API is now deprecated in this release. Accordingly, update references to the Shift.employee_id field to the Shift.team_member_id field of the Labor API.

• v2 Employees API (deprecated)

  • Migrate from the Square Employees API. The v2 Employees API is now deprecated. This topic provides information to migrate to the Team API.

• v1 Employees API (deprecated)
