Why we’re making the change
We’re making this change as a part of a quality measure.
What will current users of the endpoint need to update in their code
If you are using question keys as a means of passing information via an API, there will be no impact or action needed as all keys and language will be the same. However, if you are using Question IDs, Form IDs, or Version Numbers, these codes should be updated to match the new Version Numbers.
What will happen if users of the endpoint do not update their code
This is not a breaking change for users using keys, so nothing will happen if changes are not made. If users are using Question IDs, Form IDs, or Version Numbers and do not update their code, data retrieval and delivery to these endpoints may be disrupted.
