API enhancements

Updates to IBM OpenPages® with Watson™ APIs improve and extend the development of OpenPages applications.

• Date fields can now be set to a blank value. Previously, a blank value in a Date field returned an error.
• The API now supports select * statements even with excluded fields. The select * statement returns all fields, except for the ones that have been excluded from the reporting schema.
• The REST API now simplifies the mandatory information that is required when creating or updating GRC Objects.

  When setting fields for GRC Objects, the API now requires each field to be identified by its Name. The Id is now optional. Previously, the Id was required.

  When specifying the typeDefinitionId attribute of a GRC Object, you can now use an object type's system name or its Id. Previously, the Id was the only way to specify the object type.
