Hi guys,

It looks like a change has happened overnight - URLs to attachments have changed from this structure:

To this structure:

This has broken our API integrations for saving images to WordPress / WooCommerce as WordPress requires a file extension to exist.

Has there been an announcement anywhere about this major change?

Good to know, but as I said, a refresh of the browser tab put everything right. In my case I’m using the URLs to render images in the extension UI (they’re actually in a synced table from another base), but I can see that other method being useful in a case where the extension user needs to do something else with an attachment.
