The portal gained usage statistics and the beta of an editor widget, the plans could be bought monthly, and the .NET SDK became one package for all .NET targets. [Upgrading](#upgrading) says what to change in an application that used the earlier SDK packages. ### Changes at a Glance | Date | Change | |---|---| | December 19 | PHP SDK 2.0 | | December 3 | One .NET package for .NET Framework, .NET Core and .NET Standard | | October 1 | Appending documents | | September 18 | Monthly subscriptions | | July 27 | User document properties | | July 13 | The editor widget beta | | May 8 | Usage statistics and the GDPR data processing agreement | | January 8 | TX Text Control X15 | ### TX Text Control - **TX Text Control X15 (January 8).** The Web API and the portal moved to TX Text Control X15, [version 25.0](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-dotnet-server/whats-new/older-versions/2500/llms-full.txt), which brought header and footer content that overlaps the main text and the pagination settings keep with next and page break before for table rows. The template editor gained its auto-save, and document sharing left its beta. See [Template Editor](https://docs.textcontrol.com/reporting-cloud/portal/template-editor/llms-full.txt) and [ReportingCloud Upgraded to TX Text Control X15 - New Features](https://www.textcontrol.com/blog/2018/01/08/reportingcloud-upgraded-to-tx-text-control-x15/). ### Web API - **Appending documents (October 1).** [POST /v1/document/append](https://docs.textcontrol.com/reporting-cloud/reference/web-api/document/append/post/llms-full.txt) combines several documents into one, each separated from the one before it by nothing, a new paragraph or a new section. The .NET SDK added it in version 1.0.115.500 of September 21, the PHP SDK in version 1.9.0 of October 23. See [Appending Documents](https://docs.textcontrol.com/reporting-cloud/document-processing/appending/llms-full.txt) and [New ReportingCloud Endpoint: Appending Documents](https://www.textcontrol.com/blog/2018/10/01/new-reportingcloud-endpoint-appending-documents/). - **User document properties (July 27).** [GET /v1/templates/info](https://docs.textcontrol.com/reporting-cloud/reference/web-api/templates/info/get/llms-full.txt) also returns `userDocumentProperties`, the user-defined properties of a template. The .NET SDK supports them from version 1.0.113.500 of the same day. See [Managing Templates](https://docs.textcontrol.com/reporting-cloud/document-processing/templates/llms-full.txt) and [ReportingCloud: Retrieve User Defined Properties from Templates](https://www.textcontrol.com/blog/2018/07/27/retrieve-user-defined-properties-from-templates/). ### Portal and Plans - **Monthly subscriptions (September 18).** Besides annual subscriptions, the plans can be bought as monthly subscriptions that renew until they are canceled. See [Plans and Licensing](https://docs.textcontrol.com/reporting-cloud/overview/licensing/#subscriptions) and [ReportingCloud Monthly Payment Available](https://www.textcontrol.com/blog/2018/09/18/reportingcloud-monthly-payment-available/). - **Editor widget beta (July 13).** A widget embedded the template editor into any HTML page with a script tag. A sample of July 18 used it in an ASP.NET Core MVC application. See [Portal](https://docs.textcontrol.com/reporting-cloud/portal/llms-full.txt), [ReportingCloud Editor Widget Released to Beta](https://www.textcontrol.com/blog/2018/07/13/reportingcloud-editor-widget-released-to-beta/) and [Edit Templates in an ASP.NET Core MVC Application (.NET Core)](https://www.textcontrol.com/blog/2018/07/18/edit-templates-in-a-net-core-mvc-application/). - **Usage statistics and GDPR (May 8).** The **Statistics** section of the portal shows the quota usage per month from May 2018 on. Paid accounts could create a data processing agreement under the GDPR in the portal; [Data Security and Privacy](https://docs.textcontrol.com/reporting-cloud/overview/security/llms-full.txt) says how to get it today. See [Transactions and Statistics](https://docs.textcontrol.com/reporting-cloud/portal/statistics/llms-full.txt) and [ReportingCloud: GDPR Data Processing Agreement and Statistics](https://www.textcontrol.com/blog/2018/05/08/reportingcloud-gdpr-data-processing-agreement-and-statistics/). ### SDKs - **PHP SDK 2.0 (December 19).** Version 2.0 removes the dependencies on Zend Framework, requires PHP 7.1 or later and uses strict typing throughout. The blog announced it on January 3, 2019. - **One .NET package (December 3).** Version 1.200.500 of `TXTextControl.ReportingCloud`, published on November 30, is a multi-target package for .NET Framework, .NET Core and .NET Standard. The separate package `TXTextControl.ReportingCloud.Core` is marked deprecated. See [.NET](https://docs.textcontrol.com/reporting-cloud/sdks/dotnet/llms-full.txt) and [ReportingCloud: One Multi-Target Wrapper for .NET, .NET Core and .NET Standard](https://www.textcontrol.com/blog/2018/12/03/reportingcloud-one-multitarget-dotnet-wrapper/). ### Upgrading - **Replace the .NET Core package.** A .NET Core project that references `TXTextControl.ReportingCloud.Core` references `TXTextControl.ReportingCloud` instead. [Installing an SDK](https://docs.textcontrol.com/reporting-cloud/installation/sdks/llms-full.txt) has the command. - **Check the PHP version.** PHP SDK 2.0 requires PHP 7.1 or later. ### Related Pages - [Web API](https://docs.textcontrol.com/reporting-cloud/reference/web-api/llms-full.txt): every endpoint as it works today. - [2019](https://docs.textcontrol.com/reporting-cloud/whats-new/older-versions/2019/llms-full.txt): the next year, with TX Text Control X16 and tracked changes. - [2017](https://docs.textcontrol.com/reporting-cloud/whats-new/older-versions/2017/llms-full.txt): the previous year, with API keys, spell checking and the template gallery. --- ## Nearby - **Previous:** [What's New in ReportingCloud in 2019](https://docs.textcontrol.com/reporting-cloud/whats-new/older-versions/2019/llms-full.txt) - **Next:** [What's New in ReportingCloud in 2017](https://docs.textcontrol.com/reporting-cloud/whats-new/older-versions/2017/llms-full.txt)
