Breaking changes to the API interface

Metabase 0.49.0

POST /api/card and PUT /api/card/:id

The dataset key is deprecated and will be removed in a future version, most likely 50. In its place we have added a new key: type which is equivalent in that it distinguishes Models from Questions. type="model" is equivalent to dataset=true and type="question" is equivalent to dataset=false.
all endpoints that return data (e.g. exports in JSON, XLSX, CSV, endpoints that end in “/query”)

Starting from v49, we respond to the API calls with values formatted according to the instance localization options

NOTE: These endpoint changes were added in 0.49.3, and a bug in GET /api/embed/card/:token/query/:export-format was fixed in 0.49.5.

POST /api/card/:card-id/query/:export-format
POST /api/:dashboard-id/dashcard/:dashcard-id/card/:card-id/query/:export-format
POST /api/dataset/:export-format
GET /api/embed/card/:token/query/:export-format
GET /api/embed/dashboard/:token/dashcard/:dashcard-id/card/:card-id/:export-format

The above endpoints now accept the format_rows query parameter. It is an optional boolean parameter that will default to true if not included in the request. When format_rows is true, the export will have formatting applied such that the values match what they appear as in the app. When format_rows is false, formatting is not applied and exports will behave as they did prior to 0.49.0.

The value of format_rows has no effect when exporting xlsx files.
