The difference between API v1 and v2
The difference between the two is the way that the content is structured. V1 tends to be more complex while V2 is simplified. API V2 also provides default fields to the ones left empty. The V2 API is a modernized self-documenting API interface. It makes establishing new integrations easier for developers. It provides default empty values for fields that are left empty in API v1. Which one of these you should use depends on your individual needs. Learn more about GoTo Resolve MDM API v2.
