Improve the include-css-link option of the /v3/passage/html/ endpoint:

  • Remove irrelevant CSS
  • Use HTTPS URL in link tag

2023-05-25

The endpoints for passage text (both HTML and plain text) now enforce our licensing terms for integer-based queries. If a query exceeds these limits, the associated response will be truncated.

We have updated our terms and functionality to allow responses containing more than half of books with two chapters (Haggai) in a single request.

The endpoints for passage text (both HTML and plain text) now enforce our licensing terms. If a query exceeds these limits, the associated response will be truncated.

2018-09-20

Added the /v3/passage/search/ endpoint.

2018-09-13

Changed the default of the /v3/passage/text/ endpoint's include-passage-horizontal-lines and include-heading-horizontal-lines parameters to false. The default behavior of this endpoint was affected by an upstream bug causing these parameters to function as off by default anyway. The erroneous newline that prepended many returned texts will no longer be included.
