Versioning
The Journeybee API is versioned via the URL path (/v1/). Breaking changes will only be introduced in new major versions. Non-breaking additions (new fields, new endpoints) may be added to the current version at any time.
v1.4.0
Custom field enforcement (behavior change)
- Server-side enforcement on every custom field write — creating or updating a lead, deal, or partner with custom field values (inline, via
POST/PATCH/DELETE /v1/custom-field-values, or via the per-entity custom-field endpoints) is now validated against each field’srequiredflag, itspartner_typescope, and any active custom field rules (visibility, locking, auto-population). Previously these writes could silently persist values that violated required/rule/scope constraints. A violation now returns400 validation_errorwith adetailsarray — see Custom field validation. DELETEis treated as a blanking submission — deleting a visible required value returnsrequired_cannot_blank; deleting a value locked by an active rule returnslocked_by_rule.- This is a deliberate behavior change for existing admin-API consumers (the API enforces immediately rather than rolling out gradually) — see the custom field validation guide for the full
reasoncode reference.
Partner field requirements (new endpoints)
GET /v1/partner/{partnershipId}/leads/requirementsandGET /v1/partner/{partnershipId}/deals/requirements— new read-only endpoints that return the custom fields (with theirrequiredflag) and active rules a partner’s lead/deal submission must satisfy, computed from the exact same logic the write-side validator enforces. See Field requirements in the Partner API guide.createPartnerLead,updatePartnerLead,createPartnerDeal, andupdatePartnerDealnow document calling the matching requirements endpoint first, and that validation failures return per-fielddetailswith machine-readablereasoncodes.
Lead creation (breaking change)
partnership_uuidis now required onPOST /v1/leads— leads always belong to a partnership; campaign leads are created through campaign surfaces (portal campaign forms / public form submissions), not this endpoint.
v1.3.0
Audit Log
- Audit Log —
GET /v1/audit-logreturns a unified, company-scoped activity feed across leads, deals and partnerships. Each entry carries the entity, action (created/updated/deleted/archived/restored), a rendered actor label, and achangesarray describing what changed. - Expanded field coverage — audit entries now track many more fields per entity:
- Partners — name, email, phone, website, description, partner type, offline flag, accepted/invited dates, country, currency (in addition to tier, category, stage, archive state).
- Deals — currency and expiration date (in addition to label, value, commission, stage).
- Leads — rejected reason, direction, campaign and distributor (in addition to contact fields and status).
- Human-readable values — foreign-key fields resolve to labels rather than ids (stage, tier, category, country, currency, campaign, distributor), deal amounts are formatted in the deal’s currency, and create entries are attributed to the record’s creator.
v1.2.0
Resources & LMS
- Resources — Full CRUD with content blocks (text, image, video, document, embed, quiz, and more), tags, categories, and folder organization

Improvements
- JSONB fields fully typed — Commission calculations, pricing calculator configs, resource block content, room block settings, and custom field values now show complete structures in the API docs
- UUID validation — All UUID parameters now validate format (previously accepted any string)
- Asset company scoping — Asset references now verify company ownership
