This update contains new functionality for updating a third party billing subscription as well as a tutorial for its basic use. This functionality is currently in BETA and we'd love for you to try it out, so that anything you build with Lightspeed Retail (X-Series) is as easy to buy as possible. This new functionality will allow you to manage subscriptions for Apps you build using our Core APIs, or extensions you build using Workflows. If you'd like to use this new API, please contact [email protected] and we can help get you onboard.

This update provides a new 2.0 Webhooks API for managing webhooks. The primary difference between this API and its v0.9 counterpart, is that this API accepts JSON, instead of encoded form data.
Note: Currently we recommend that you continue to use the v2.0 API for production.
