New Features

​
Account Attributes API

We’ve released a brand new Account Attributes API that’s powered by Method’s real-time data integrations for up-to-date insights. It provides:

  • Real-time indicators for individual account usage patterns
  • Account utilization metrics
  • Account standing information
  • Delinquency data (period, outcome, and amount)

For access to the Account Attributes API, please contact your Method CSM.

​
Improvements

​
Entity Attributes API

We’ve enhanced the Entity Attributes API with two new attributes:

  • credit_health_open_accounts: Total number of open accounts
  • credit_health_entity_delinquent: Entity delinquency status, rating and a list of delinquent accounts

Pro tip: Leverage both the Account Attributes API and the Entity Attributes API to get a holistic view of an entity’s credit health.

Method Dashboard

We’ve made significant performance and usability improvements to the Method Dashboard:

  • Pages load 3x faster. We also made navigating between pages feel a lot better.
  • Charts load 2x faster. We also fixed hovering over the bars so it works well.
  • Universal Search is now keyboard navigable. You can use your up/down arrows and hit enter.
  • Added the ability to right click on a table row and open it in a new tab.
  • Created better financial account logos. We will continue to fix bad ones.
  • Changed the layout of information on details pages to make reading easier.

Please reach out in Slack with any feedback. We will put your requests at the top of our to-do list.

​
Payment Dry-run

We’ve added a new dry_run boolean flag to the POST /payments endpoint. When enabled, it will simulate a payment without triggering the actual payment flow. You’ll receive accurate information about the payment timeline, helping you preview the payment flow and communicate accurate timing to your users before initiating an actual payment. For more information, see our Payments API.
