v3.7.0-beta.1

What's Changed

Remove unnecessary data in the payload when combining related queries before sending it to the server. This would improve overall performance decreasing network latency and server processing.

Affected methods

• find
• summarize
• text_search (API query_display_name_cache)

Detailed Description

The change should transform calls like:

sg.find('Asset', [['project', 'is', {'created_at': datetime.datetime(2015, 12, 16, 11, 2, 10, tzinfo), 'id': 72, 'name': 'Demo: Game', 'type': 'Project'}]]) 

as if the following had been called:

sg.find('Asset', [['project', 'is', {'id': 72, 'type': 'Project'}]]) 

This version also includes a new environmental variable to enable this feature. Please use it at initialization if you want to compare results or if you are getting any unexpected behavior.
