Version 1.10.0 of the Benchling SDK promotes many of the features in the benchling.apps package from beta to stable. Some significant changes were made as part of this final promotion: Dataset methods in benchling.v2.beta.datasets were removed and replaced by benchling.v2.beta.data_frames. Data Frames remain in v2-beta stability in the API.

The name and filename fields returned from the GET /v2-beta/files endpoint will correspond to the in-app display name and the original name of the uploaded file, respectively. This change will go live on February 8th 2024.

The v2-beta DNA Sequences list endpoints (i.e. /dna-sequences:match-bases and /dna-sequences:search-bases) are being updated to only return DNA Sequence entities in the response. Currently, RNA Sequence and Oligo entities may be erroneously returned. This update will go live on February 7th 2024.

The v2-beta Datasets API is being updated to the Data Frames API. This update includes changes to Datasets API endpoints, as well as field changes for the related Analyses API. These changes will be rolled out on January 22nd 2024.

The isReviewed field in the Assay Results API will now correctly reflect the review status of the results’ entry: true if the associated entry has been sent for review and accepted, false otherwise. This fix will go live on January 3rd 2024.

Benchling will stop sending the v2-beta version of canvas-related webhooks on December 11th 2023. Please migrate to the corresponding v2 versions.
