LightBox APIs use semantic versioning to version our APIs. Semantic versioning structures each version identifier into three parts, MAJOR, MINOR, and PATCH notation.
MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH or v1.0.0
- PATCH is incremented for bug fixes.
- MINOR is incremented for backward-compatible changes of the API.
- MAJOR is incremented for breaking changes.

v1.9.1
Details:
Within the payload, we return all the building breadcrumbs and IDs related to a parcel. Some parcels have many buildings, so we have limited the result of building references to a maximum of 25. If you want to get the count of buildings greater than 25, you will need to use the structure endpoint. We are looking at ways to support this result in the future. Please reach out to developer@lightboxre.com with any questions.
Bug Fixes
- Updated the address search endpoint to return multiple parcel objects is the address results in multiple parcel IDs.
