Originally posted Feb. 4, 2026

What’s Changing?

We are reaching out to inform you about an important update to the Morningstar Fund API Center that may require action on your part.

Starting in May 2026, the UI Display Names and Endpoint Field Names for certain data points will be updated. These changes are designed to:

  1. Improve clarity so names better reflect the underlying data type.
  2. Align naming conventions with identical data points in other Morningstar products for consistency.

What’s Not Changing?

  • Data values, historical data, and calculation logic remain unchanged.
  • There is no impact on data semantics or underlying methodology.

What Do You Need to Do?
If your systems currently consume the affected Endpoint fields, you will need to update your integrations to reflect the new Endpoint Field Names by May 2026.

Key Notes:

  • These changes only affect the names of the data points (UI and Endpoint Field Names).
  • There is no impact on data values, historical data, or calculation logic.

We recommend reviewing your systems and workflows to ensure a seamless transition. Our support team is available to assist with any questions or concerns you may have.

Thank you for your attention to this update.
