Umbraco Forms API for Umbraco Heartcore
With REST APIs being one of the main parts of a headless cms we want to ensure that Umbraco Forms is just as useful in a headless context as on a regular Umbraco based website. The first part will be to ensure that Umbraco Forms has endpoints for getting a form definition and for submitting a form entry, which is what this roadmap item will deliver.

Umbraco 8.4
Umbraco 8.4 contains Data Type Tracking, improved backoffice search, Property Actions, faster Media Library, UI and accessibility improvements and more than 180 community contributions.
Data Type Overview/Tracking
With this new feature, you will be able to acces an overview of where a Data Type is used. You will also get a helpful warning if you try to delete a Data Type that is in use. This will make it easier to predict the effects of changing or deleting Data Types. This feature has been added as an outcome of the work done on the Media Overview/Tracking feature.
