Replaces the related setting code with BIC in Financial Addresses Breaking changes Public preview

What’s new

Replaces swift_code with bic on the credentials.us_bank_account hash of the Financial Address object. BIC (Bank Identifier Code) is the standard term for what was previously labeled as a the related setting code.

Why is this a breaking change?

Previously, swift_code returned the BIC on credentials.us_bank_account. If your code reads swift_code from Financial Address responses, it will no longer receive this property. You must update it to read bic instead. If your code passes swift_code in requests, those requests will fail.

Impact

If your code currently reads or sets swift_code on Financial Address objects, you must update it to use bic instead.
