Enhanced API v1.1.13 released

On Thursday November 19, 2015, version 1.1.13 of the Enhanced PRH API was released to production. If you encounter any problems with your applications as a result of these changes, please contact us at api@penguinrandomhouse.com.

Version 1.1.13 release notes

This is another minor release with a couple small fixes and additions. Some adjustments were made to the just added ANT views and we added the ability to embed award results in a Title request.

Of note is the filter parameter "showReadingGuides" which had previously been disabled due to poor performance but which had not provided any feedback that it was not working. For the moment, requests that include the "showReadingGuides" parameter will produce an HTTP 500 error. We have a pending database change where a flag is being computed to indicate the existence of reading guides and as soon as that is available, then this filter will be functional.
