# API version 2020-01 is now stable and ready for general usage

The 2020-01 release contains many of the features we previewed at [Unite 2019](https://www.shopify.ca/partners/blog/shopify-unite-announcements-2019). The [product media](https://help.shopify.com/en/api/guides/media), [order editing](https://help.shopify.com/en/api/guides/editing-orders), and [fulfillment orders](https://help.shopify.com/en/api/guides/managing-fulfillments-with-fulfillmentorders) features are now stable and available on merchant stores. You’ll also find new additions to how you can manage [smart collections](https://help.shopify.com/en/api/reference/products/collection?api%5Bversion%5D=2020-01) and [discount codes](https://help.shopify.com/en/api/guides/discounts#buy-x-get-y-or-spend-x-get-y-automatic-discount).
