Monthly digest notifications for EYI
Date live: April 2026
Change type: User interface

Deep linking - locale parameter
Date live: April 2026
Change type: Developer functionality
Description: The deep linking integration now supports a locale parameter, enabling third-party portability developers to direct users to a localised version of the EYI data transfer flow. When a user clicks a deep link from a third-party service, the locale parameter ensures the EYI interface is presented in the user's preferred language.
For the full list of supported parameters, see the Deep Linking Parameters page.
