API Updates and Announcement for February 13, 2025

Announcement

**Validation for **channel_id** in POST/PUT ****/v2/orders**

The v2 Orders API now validates the channel_id field in both the Create an Order and Update an Order endpoints. Previously, invalid or non-existent channel_id values were accepted without error, potentially leading to data integrity issues. With this update, passing an invalid channel_id will result in a **400 **error, ensuring better data hygiene.

**Platform Limits - **Added platform limits for the Inventory Adjustments and Locations APIs.
**JWT Session-Sync Limits - **Added a note regarding the number of invalid session-sync JWT tokens allowed before the system blocks an IP address. See the Headless/GraphQL account login section for details.
