WeChat open platform: OpenAPI, cloud development and basic management capabilities upgrade

The WeChat team recently made several optimizations on the basic capabilities of OpenAPI and the third-party platform of the WeChat open platform, helping developers to better use OpenAPI and helping service providers to better use third-party platforms. The optimization content is as follows:

OpenAPI management

1. In order to help developers locate OpenAPI problems more efficiently, the "Query rid information" interface is now open, through which request details can be queried (rid is the unique id of each request), including the timestamp of the initiation of the request, the millisecond time-consuming request, and Request parameters, return parameters, etc., for details, please refer to the official interface documentation.
2. In order to help developers understand the limit of each OpenAPI call more clearly and call the interface more reasonably, the "Query OpenAPI Call Quota" interface is now open. You can query information such as the number of API calls on the day and the number of remaining times on the day. For details, please refer to the official interface documentation.
3. When the developer calls the interface up to the call limit of the day, he can reset the number of calls through the interface of "Clear API Calls", and the call quota can be restored after resetting. For the usage restrictions and details of the interface, please refer to the official interface documentation.

In addition, in order to help developers use APIs and manage APIs more efficiently, the WeChat team will continue to optimize API debugging tools and API error code query tools. For details, please pay attention to follow-up announcements.

Third-party platform management

In order to help third-party developers to create accounts, configure information and follow-up management more efficiently, the WeChat team has recently optimized the third-party platform creation process and configuration methods. The details are as follows.

Cloud development

1. Message reception supports cloud development: service providers can directly obtain platform push messages in the cloud environment, reducing complex decryption links.

2. Authorized domain names support cloud development: support for opening from static website domain names under cloud development, which can save domain name application and filing links.

The above configuration can be operated on the WeChat Open Platform-Third Party Platform-Development Data Configuration Page.

more efficient and simpler

1. Simplify the creation steps, decouple the registration of the account and the account review. After the account is created, it can be reviewed after the online conditions are met, which is convenient for developers to fully test after obtaining the account. Shorten the debugging time period and improve the audit efficiency.
2. Optimize the entire network release link, and the release will take effect after the automated detection is successful, without manual review, which greatly improves efficiency.
3. In order to improve the code review experience of third-party development of small programs, the platform has launched a "standard template" review process for small programs developed by authorized service providers. Small programs that use standard templates and meet the requirements can speed up the review process. For details, please check the official announcement.

Basic capabilities are upgraded again

1. In order to facilitate service providers to configure third-party platform applet server domain names and applet business domain names more flexibly and efficiently, corresponding interfaces have been opened. For details, please refer to the official interface documents.
2. In addition to third-party developers who can receive alarm information through the official alarm group, the third-party platform now supports binding administrators to receive official updates and information in a timely manner to strengthen the connection between developers and the platform.

The platform will continue to work with developers to build a more complete WeChat ecosystem and jointly create more high-quality mini programs. If you have any product, operation, or technical issues related to the development of the Mini Program, you can go to the WeChat Open Community for communication.
