Summary 🎉

The first release of 2025, V4.4.0 comes with improved system/environment controls, new endpoints and data provider, and simplifies creating an OpenBB Workspace custom backend from an existing FastAPI app.

What's changed 🚀

• Update LICENSE @maximevtush (#7020)

• Update README.md @jmaslek (#7011)

• HTTP configurations can now be defined in system_settings.json.

  • See the docs

• Output validation can be completely disabled in the router.command decorator by setting no_validate = True

  • See the docs

• FastAPI app instances can now be used by the openbb-api launcher to create custom Workspace backends for instant dashboarding.

  • See the docs for a quick start example.

• openbb-sec adds two new dependencies for handling HTML-to-Text:

  • trafilatura
  • inscriptis

• openbb-charting updates the version of plotly.json used in the PyWry window to the current one.
