Summary

This release includes a number of new API methods, a few enhancements, and some fixes. Important to note is that we've made some API method name changes as we've settled on a method naming convention. According to semver, we should bump the version to 2.0.0, however just this time, we're not going to since the project is still new and likely not yet in production in a lot of places. Many profuse apologies to our semver-purist friends.

Many thanks to all the contributors who have contributed much of the new API functionalities. 🙇 🚀🎉 A special thanks to @criticalbh and @joeyvandijk for a great job implementing many of the API methods requested by the community. 🔥 🏆 💯
