• Engine/Web: Deprecated the old export API signatures in favor of a new improved signatures to follow better API design practices. The following changes were made:
  • Simplified the exportVideo, export and exportWithColorMask APIs by making all parameters optional except for the page handle
  • Moved all optional parameters (including mimeType) into a single options object, which removes the requirement to pass undefined or empty objects for unused parameters
  • Removed enum usage for mime types in favor of string literals to align with the rest of our type definitions
  • These changes make the APIs more intuitive and easier to use, especially when only specific options need to be configured
