note: >-
  Bynder publishes a dated, year-partitioned API changelog running from 2019 to
  2025 and indexes it in its own llms.txt. As probed on 2026-08-13 there is no 2026
  page — https://api.bynder.com/changelog/2026.md returns 404 and the most recent
  dated entry is July 2025. The changelog is prose per month, not per release;
  Bynder ships no version numbers for the API itself, so entries are anchored to
  month and endpoint rather than to a release tag.
scheme: dated-monthly
current_version: null
versioning_note: >-
  The API carries no product version. Version lives in the URI path per service
  (see lifecycle/bynder-lifecycle.yml) and changes are announced by month.

    Thirteen months with no changelog entry, while the underlying documentation
    is demonstrably live — the webhooks reference page carries an updatedAt of
    2026-08-03 and the getting-started guide 2026-05-15. The API is being changed;
    the changelog is not being written.
