  CRITICAL WARNING FOR HYPERION CLIENTS

  • This is a major new version and contains breaking changes for existing Hyperion queries.  Upgrading will most likely require changes to existing sheets.
  • The column names and response formats for Hyperion API queries have changed, and several new columns have been added.
  • Action Required: If you have existing Excel sheet integrations using a version earlier than 2, you must verify the new response formats in a separate worksheet first.
  • Please review our API Migration Guide (V3 to V4) before updating:  https://apidocs.synmax.com/pages/migration-guide-v3-v4.html
