[Bug Fix] Remove baselineShift from FormatCells

Tue, 21 Apr 2026 12:00:00 -0000

The baselineShift property has been removed from the FormatCells schema. This property was never functional for cell-level formatting and belongs exclusively to the FormatText schema, where it continues to be supported.

[Breaking] Fix incorrect scope check for revoking roles

Thu, 09 Apr 2026 12:00:00 -0000

While auditing our specification we discovered we had the wrong scope applied to the revokeWorkspaceMembershipRoles endpoint. This endpoint should have required the `organization:write` and `scim|w` scopes. This change rectifies this bug. If you are encountering a missing scope error, please add the `organization:write` scope to your API Grant.

[Feature] LLM-friendly documentation now available via /llms.txt

Thu, 26 Mar 2026 12:00:00 -0000

We've added /llms.txt support to the Workiva Developer Portal, making our API documentation easily accessible to large language models and AI-powered tools. Each API version has its own llms.txt file with a complete page listing, including support for the Chains and Wdata APIs.

[Feature] Added Enclosed list sequence

Tue, 17 Mar 2026 12:00:00 -0000

We've updated our list sequence to include the `enclosed` type, which allows for more flexible list formatting options.

[Information] Prototype documentation restored

Tue, 24 Feb 2026 12:00:00 -0000

We've reintroduced prototype endpoint documentation to support you in upgrading to our newer API versions. As prototype endpoints are now deprecated, we want to ensure you have easy access to all the documentation you need for a smooth transition.

[Information] API Version 2022-01-01 now deprecated

Thu, 12 Feb 2026 12:00:00 -0000

As we continue to enhance your developer experience, this API version (2022-01-01) is now deprecated in favor of our newer, more powerful 2026-01-01 version. **What this means for you:** - All endpoints in this version will continue to work, as expected, until their sunset dates. - Generally-available endpoints will sunset on **January 31, 2029**, giving you plenty of time to upgrade - Prototype endpoints will sunset on **January 31, 2027** Note: This deprecation does not affect Wdata or Chains APIs.

[Bug Fix] Removed unsupported `clearValueFormatStyles` field from Update Sheet requests

Wed, 11 Feb 2026 12:00:00 -0000

`clearValueFormatStyles` is not a supported field in `ApplyFormats` and `SheetUpdateClearFormats` schemas requests and was incorrectly documented in the API specification. If you were previously using this field to clear value format styles from cells, please note that providing this field in your requests had no effect. Please use 2026-01-01 or later versions of the API to clear value format styles from cells. We apologize for any confusion this may have caused and thank you for your understanding.

[Information] Prototype documentation removed from site navigation

Mon, 02 Feb 2026 12:00:00 -0000

Prototype endpoints are no longer displayed in the API documentation navigation menu. These endpoints are still fully functional and any bookmarked pages or direct links will continue to work.

[Feature] Error responses now include API version

Mon, 02 Feb 2026 12:00:00 -0000

We're making it easier for you to debug and troubleshoot your API integrations by including a helpful version field that shows exactly which API version was in use when an issue occurred. This enhancement gives you the context you need to quickly identify and resolve problems.
