[2025-01-07] New in Nylas - January 2025

✨ As a friendly reminder, Nylas maintains compatibility within major versions. This means if you’re on Nylas v3, you don’t need to do anything to use the features we’re talking about here. (If you’re still using v2, we can’t wait to show you our latest and greatest! Check out the Upgrade guide.)
Nylas v2 deprecation news
Nylas v3 is our faster, more reliable, easier to use new platform, and we can’t wait to show you what you’re missing. To help us focus, Nylas is only making critical updates to Nylas v2 at this time.
Nylas v2 was officially deprecated on December 31, 2024. Because of the holidays, we're keeping v2 running as usual until January 20, 2025. If you need to extend your migration timeline, contact Nylas Support.
If you haven’t already, check out the Nylas v2 to v3 Upgrade guide for instructions on how to get started building your project on v3, and the App Migration guide, the Migration API references, and our detailed instructions on migrating the many types of Microsoft accounts out there.
Personalize your migration process with Migration Station
We also built Migration Station, a customized upgrade and data migration guide built for you based on what Nylas features you use. Fill out the form and build a guide, and save the URL to share or to come back to later. We'd love your feedback on it!
Introducing Korean localization in Scheduler
Nylas Scheduler now officially supports Korean localization! To configure your language settings, simply update the localization
parameter. For more information, see Scheduler localization.
Query IMAP servers directly
We've introduced the query_imap
query parameter for the following endpoints:
When you set query_imap
to true
in your request, Nylas queries the IMAP server directly instead of the Nylas database. This lets you get the most up-to-date information from the IMAP server, or data older than the default three-month retention time.
⚠️ Most IMAP servers are slow and have low rate limits. Nylas might take more time to return responses when you use the query_imap
parameter compared to requests that don't use it.
Nylas API improvements and bug fixes
- Improved latency for EWS grants.
- Fixed a bug that prevented Nylas from downloading some attachments when retrieving messages. Nylas now downloads all attachments properly.
- Fixed a bug where
latest_message_send_date
andlatest_message_received_date
were sometimes missing from Thread objects.
