Impact of URL Structure Update on API Usage
How will the URL structure update affect my use of the Article Attachments API?
For most users, the update to the Article Attachments API URL structure will have no noticeable impact. The API will continue to function as it currently does, but with a new URL format that excludes the file name.
However, if you have custom integrations that parse the file name from the URL, you will need to adjust your code. Instead of extracting the file name from the URL, you should use the file_name attribute provided in the API response. This change is necessary to ensure your integrations continue to work smoothly.
