The Merchant API's October release denormalized account-level issues onto offers, so specific account suspension issues now surface on the affected products rather than returning a generic ACCOUNT_DISAPPROVAL. Diagnosing which products a suspension is blocking no longer needs a separate account-level lookup.
The same release added a read-only homePageUri field to the accounts resource, defaulted accounts.notificationsubscriptions.list to 100 results per page with a maximum of 200, published a guide to push notifications for account service changes, added Java samples for batch region create, update and delete, and published third-party service provider documentation covering account setup, test accounts and UCP checkout onboarding. Discontinued v1beta reference pages were removed and the quotas and limits docs were split into separate guides.
