Changes in the parameters or responses
- There are no changes in parameters.
- To process the responses of our APIs for TomTom Orbis Maps-specific features, new versions of the schemas are required. They can be found on the Downloads page. The schema extensions are backward compatible with the current schema versions for TomTom Map-based content.
