v1.1.0 Release

Release Notes – Playtesters.API v1.1.0

New Features

• UpdateTester Endpoint Enhancement:
  The PATCH /api/testers/{name} endpoint now supports a new optional field:
  • TotalHoursPlayed (double) – allows updating the total playtime of a tester.
    • null → keeps the current value unchanged.
    • non-negative number → updates the total hours played.
    • negative number → returns 400 Bad Request.

Improvements

• Updated documentation for the UpdateTester endpoint to clearly describe how accessKey, name, and TotalHoursPlayed can be updated.
• Validation ensures TotalHoursPlayed cannot be negative.

Fixes

• No breaking changes; all existing clients remain compatible.
