# 8.0.0 Platform Release Notes

**Released**: March 10, 2026 **Type**: Major Release

## Release Schedule Announcement

Starting with version 8.0, Unqork is moving to a quarterly General Availability (GA) release calendar. This new 12-week cycle replaces the previous 6-week model, giving teams more predictability and time to adopt new capabilities. Critical patch releases continue to deploy weekly.

## Improvements

### Administration

- **Services Administration**: Unqork has enhanced the reliability of external service integrations using the Enable Token Persistence feature by implementing strict, real-time expiration checks. Previously, tokens were validated only at the start of a request, which could result in expired tokens being used mid-request. Tokens are now revalidated immediately before each service call.
- **Environment Administration**: Fixed inaccurate helper text in Environment Administration.

### APIs

As part of Unqork's ongoing migration from GraphQL endpoints to REST endpoints, this release includes the following updates:

- Implemented a high-performance REST `/records/:recordId` endpoint for retrieving Data Model, module, and workflow records — a faster alternative to the legacy GraphQL `getRecord` resolver.
- Implemented a new REST `getSearchConfig` endpoint to support search service replacements with the ADS package.
- Implemented a new REST `getRecordsCount` endpoint for modules, workflows, and data models.
- Implemented a new REST `getRecords` endpoint.
- Implemented a new REST `restoreSchema` endpoint.
- Implemented a new REST `getSchemas` endpoint.
- Implemented a new REST `getModulesByModels` endpoint.
- Implemented a new REST `getModelsFromSchema` endpoint.
- Implemented a new REST `POST /schemas/data-validation` endpoint. The former GraphQL `POST /models/validateFromSchema` endpoint is marked as deprecated but continues to be supported until no active usage remains.
- **API Documentation**: Updated the Update User (`PUT /users/{userId}`) documentation to clarify that the `userId` field cannot be modified, and that the `shouldNotify` parameter enables the New Account email only and does not suppress User Changed notifications.

> [!NOTE]
> The `/fbu/uapi/pdfbar/combine` `flatten` parameter is scheduled for removal in version 8.2.0. The `/fbu/uapi/image/parsePDF` endpoint is also scheduled for removal in version 8.2.0.

### Application Versioning

- **Service Logs**: Service logs now contain information about the context of the origin request to improve debugging capabilities.

### Module Builder

- **Dynamic Grid component**: Column triggers and display behavior have been stabilized for this release.

### Data

- Unqork has expanded REST endpoint coverage for Data Models and schema operations, replacing legacy GraphQL .

## Security

This release includes scheduled security patches. No action is required.

An API endpoint is the location where an API receives requests for a specific resource on its server. It's the point of contact between an API client and an API server, and is usually a uniform resource locator (URL) that provides the location of the resource.

The REST (representational state transfer) API is a set of architectural constraints used to exchange information securely over the internet.

GraphQL resolvers let define how you want to populate data, likefetching data from a database or a third-party API.

Schema is a declarative language that defines the structure, content, and constraints of the data.
