A new guide for Application Security when integrating with Branch Direct Embedded is now available. Ensuring the security of your application is critical, as this provides access to worker banking and financial information.

For API endpoints in certain categories that don't reference employee_id in their request/response structures, the default URL structure has been adjusted from /employees/{employeeId} to /workers/{workerId}. These categories include:

There is now a limit of 100 retry attempts per request to the Create Disbursement endpoint. Once this limit is reached, any additional retry attempts will return a 200 response with status: SKIPPED and reason_code: RETRY_LIMIT_EXCEEDED.

Paste your Sandbox API key in the Credentials field to use it across multiple endpoints without needing re-entry. Learn more about using this in the API Reference Intro guide.

This change supports the addition of Branch's product documentation. Links will redirect automatically.

The Add a Debit Card guide now has examples for embedding Branch Direct into native iOS or Android apps.

Added details to the guide for how to Add a Debit Card. Now includes the requirements for developing a backend server endpoint, and sample code for sending data to the backend in the iFrame callback.

Each query parameter, body parameter, and response field in the API reference now has an example value.

All query parameters, body parameters, and response fields in the API reference now have a description.

In the Rate Limits guide, added specific rates for Create Wallet and Create Disbursement, and added implementation details for tuning a rate-limiting token bucket.
