NEW: Language Identifier Added to JSON Marketing Text

From the 12th of November, Icecat will add a language identifier to the marketing texts in JSON product data-sheets. For some languages, Icecat makes use of a backup language for a marketing text in case that there is no text available in the primary, requested language. Therefore, a language identifier is added to the JSON output to indicate in which language the marketing text is actually provided (as was already the case for XML output).

See below both the old and the new structure as part of JSON product data-sheets

Old JSON structure:

New structure in case of a granular JSON call:

Please, update your import scripts according to the new structure, in case that you use JSON data from Icecat.
