Billed until property on subscription items is no longer included in responses by default Breaking changes Public preview
What’s new
You must now expand the billed_until property on subscription items if you want to include it in the response. This makes subscription API methods more performant in cases where it isn’t requested.
Why is this a breaking change?
If your integration references the billed_until property on subscription items, you now need to expand it in your request to include it in the response. Previously, it was included by default.
Impact
Requests that don’t need billed_until execute quicker. This is most notable on API methods that can return multiple subscriptions in one request, such as list.
For requests that do need billed_until, expand the property in your request.
