Apr 1, 2025April 2025: Delivered configurable API base URL handling in the Cohere Compass SDK, introducing an optional include_api_in_url parameter to Compass client classes. Default remains true for backward compatibility. Updated URL construction and API endpoint definitions to conditionally include '/api', enabling configurable API host paths and easier testing across environments. This reduces integration frictions for diverse deployment setups and improves testing coverage.

Jan 1, 20252025-01 monthly summary: Delivered two high-value features in cohere-compass-sdk that drive scalability and governance, with a clear business impact. Implemented the Index Configuration API with an IndexConfig model, enabling configurable index settings (shards, replicas) and support for index_config in create_index, accompanied by an SDK version update. Introduced the V2 Access Control API as a new module for client-side management of users, roles, and groups, including CRUD operations and pagination, plus an SDK version bump. Impact includes faster, more reliable index provisioning and stronger access governance, enhanced developer experience through a streamlined API surface and versioned upgrades.
