The following table outlines the changes made in AudienceView 6.8.11 HotFix 9:
| NEW FEATURE |
Implement a New Route for API Calls – Phase One
The new route for WebAPI calls, called v2, augments and replaces the functionality of the WebAPI/object/ route with WebAPI/v2/.
This will reduce the number of calls required to the WebAPI. The new route can also:
- Assign handles with Object Name (objectName=myHandle)
- Automatically create handles (boCreate not needed anymore)
- Automatically releases those created handles, at the end of the call.
- Release a business object by handle: (objectRelease=myHandle)
- Combine ADDNODE with other operations
- Change the ADDNODE response
- Add support for remove node (removeNode=nodepath)
- Change the doWork action name from part of the URI to a param (action=actionName)
The WebAPI is currently backwards compatible with the old style route (/WebAPI/object/ still operates as it did before). |

| IMPROVEMENT |
API - Allow users to search the TScontentBO without providing an article_id parameter. |
AVD-19660 |
| IMPROVEMENT |
API - Add venue_id and series_id to unified search.
The search method of the TScontentBO has been enhanced to allow users to search for an individual venue or series, using venue_id and series_id, respectively. |
AVD-19661 |
| IMPROVEMENT |
Obstructed Seat Indicator
An Obstructed option has been added to the Venue Configuration application Venue|Seats page's 'Sys Type' field.
When users perform best available searches via the AudienceView Desktop or online, they have the option of omitting obstructed seats from their searches. |
AVD-19663 |
| IMPROVEMENT |
API - Add parameters to the TSmapBO::Extract.
TSmapBO::Extract can now take the following parameters:
- screen_id
- seat_id
- entered_promo_code_id
- promocode_access_code
- promocode_access_code_url
- clearPromoCodes
The behaviour of the promo code parameters is consistent with other calls:
- If screen_id or seat_id is specified an event (performance_id) must also be specified.
- If screen_id is specified the extracted data is limited to that screen.
- If seat_id is specified the extracted data is limited to that seat's screen.
- If screen_id and seat_id are both specified, the seat must be on the screen identified by screen_id.
- If multiple events are specified (performance_id), data is extracted for all events. Previously, data was only extracted for the first event.
