November 5, 2024 — Rule engine, filter and metric improvements

New in the Rules engine:

• New variable $card_bin, representing the card issuer, and new function count($user_profiles, [period]), which returns the number of different cards used by the same user. See the documentation for more details.
• Simulate rule execution: open any version of a rule, click the arrow next to the Edit button, and choose Simulate. You can run the simulation from real payment data or fill in the variables freely.
• Improvements to validating nonexistent lists when creating rules. The platform now prevents deleting lists that are being used by active rules.

Updates to the Explore screen:

• We improved the usability of filters to make it easier to identify the active fields in each search. We will soon replicate the same reorganization across other screens of the platform.
• We fixed an intermittent issue where the Explore screen showed no results in queries with large data volumes.

Other improvements:

• New Metrics: Total amount by merchant and status, Average duration (ms), Average duration (ms) by connector ID, and Average duration (ms) by connector ID, card network and issuer.
• You can now send card data in the update (PATCH) of the payments API, if this data was not sent at creation (POST). This reduces the negative impact on the quality of later risk analyses when card data cannot be obtained at creation time.
