What's New in Cloudflare API: Apps

Quick Summary

This release includes 100 changes, all of which are new features, affecting the /accounts/{account_id}/access/apps and /accounts/{account_id}/access/apps/{app_id} resources. The updates add various optional properties to the response and request bodies, including those related to access app response embedded policies, RDP properties, and OAuth configurations. These changes are designed to enhance the functionality and flexibility of the API. As a result, developers should review the updated API documentation to understand how these changes may impact their applications.

Editor's Note:

We've observed that this release is part of a larger trend of enhancing the API's capabilities for managing access and applications. As we review these changes, we note that the addition of new optional properties can simplify the development process by reducing the need for separate API calls. Our tip for developers is to carefully examine the updated schema definitions to ensure they are taking full advantage of these new features.
