Existing API updates

Orders API
- CalculateOrder (beta) endpoint. Use the endpoint to calculate adjustments (for example, taxes and discounts) to an order for preview purposes. In response, the endpoint returns the order showing the calculated totals. You can use this endpoint with an existing order or an order that has not been created.
The endpoint does not update an existing order. It only returns a calculated view of the order that you provided in the request. To create or update an order, use the CreateOrder and UpdateOrder endpoints, respectively.
- Order type. Two fields are added in support of the Loyalty API integration. For more information, see Deferred reward creation. For an example, see Redeem Points.
Order.rewardsrepresents rewards added to an order by calling the CreateLoyaltyReward endpoint.Order.discount.reward_idsindicates that a discount is the result of the specified rewards that were added to an order using theCreateLoyaltyRewardendpoint.

Customers API
-
The Search Customers endpoint supports search by email address, phone number, and reference ID with the following additional query filters:
-
The
email_addressquery filter (beta) supports an exact or fuzzy search for customer profiles by their email addresses. -
The
phone_numberquery filter (beta) supports an exact or fuzzy search for customer profiles by their phone numbers. -
The
reference_idquery filter (beta) supports an exact or fuzzy search for customer profiles by their reference IDs.
-
-
The
created_at,updated_at, andidattributes on the Customer resource are updated to be optional. As a result, they no longer are required input parameters when you call the Square SDKs to create aCustomerobject. You might need to update the dependent SDKs to the latest version to mediate breaking your existing code.
