  • 17007: Cloudmore API Update - Note: These changes break the existing API 

Cloudmore has made a few updates to our API. While we always strive not to make breaking changes to the API, in certain circumstances we need to. We have already communicated this to our existing API users to ensure there is not negative impact on their environment.

In this release, two methods; MonthlyBillingPerOrganizationDetails and MonthlyBillingPerProduct have been removed. The functionality of the MonthlyBillingPerOrganizationDetails method has been moved to MonthlyBillingPerOrganization.

The following changes have been made to MonthlyBillingPerOrganization and MonthlyBillingPerService:

  • The Url parameter ‘includeCustomServices=[true|false]’ is not supported anymore. The custom services are part of the report by default.
  • A new, optional Url parameter ‘currencyCode=[currencyCode]’ has been added. This parameter allows you to convert the report's monetary values into the desired currency.
  • Successful response JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) objects have been added for both methods. MonthlyBillingPerOrganizationViewModel and MonthlyBillingPerServiceViewModel have been re-factored to represent report data with more detail. For any response object structure and naming changes, please refer to the latest REST API Swagger documentation (https://api.cloudmore.com/swagger). 

MonthlyBillingPerOrganization and MonthlyBillingPerService also now contain Microsoft O365 CSP Direct and Microsoft Azure CSP billing data.

Methods SnapshotReportPerOrganizationDetails and SnapshotReportPerProduct have been removed. The functionality of the SnapshotReportPerOrganizationDetails method has been moved to SnapshotReportPerOrganization.

The following changes have been made to SnapshotReportPerOrganization and SnapshotReportPerService:

  • The Url parameter ‘includeCustomServices=[true|false]’ is no longer supported. The custom services are part of the report by default.
  • The new optional Url parameter ‘currencyCode=[currencyCode]’ has been added allowing you to convert the report's monetary values into the desired currency.
  • Successful response JSON objects for both SnapshotReportPerOrganizationDetailViewModel and SnapshotReportPerServiceViewModel have been re-factored to represent report data with more detail. For any response object structure and naming changes, please refer to the latest REST API Swagger documentation

NOTE: Microsoft O365 CSP Direct and Microsoft Azure CSP data is not included in the snapshot reports.

  • 11727: Scheduled email reports

Many users will run the same billing reports every month. To make this process easier, users can now set up a scheduled report and choose how frequently it runs. We have also added the option to have the report emailed once the download is complete, saving users time. In this first version we have added the functionality to the overall billing report. It will be added to more reports going forward.
