## What's new

- **Deliverable files in the milestones API.** On `GET /api/v2/milestones` and
  `GET /api/v2/milestones/:id`, a file answer in a milestone's deliverables now carries `file` (its
  `filename`, `content_type` and `byte_size`) and a `tahua_file_url`. Both stay `null` for a text
  answer and for a file that is still being scanned.
- **Download them the same way.** `GET` the `tahua_file_url` (`/api/v2/file_inputs/<id>`) with your
  credential's token to receive the file itself, exactly as for an application's file. Each download
  is recorded in the audit log against the credential. See [API access](/integrations/api-access).
