Reminder: Support Ending for Deprecated APIs

As described in the Feb 2016 release notes, the effective date for the deprecation of the following Concur APIs was 19 May, 2016. In two weeks, as of 19 November, 2016, the APIs will be retired, and Concur will not address any new issues concerning them.

The Concur Platform deprecation policy is available here: https://developer.concur.com/tools-support/reference/deprecation-policy.html (English only)

Business Purpose / Client Benefit: This update removes outdated or unused APIs and API functions. Additional information is available on the Concur Developer Portal: https://developer.concur.com (English only).

**Coming Soon** Support for TLS v 1.0 Encryption Protocol to End March of 2017

Concur announces an End of Support (March 2017) cycle for version 1.0 of the TLS encryption protocol, continuing support for the more secure 1.1 and 1.2 versions of TLS. As background, the TLS protocol allows secure back and forth communications between a phone or computer and a cloud-based service. Note that, since less than 1% of Concur users are logging in to Concur Solutions using browsers or phones limited to version 1.0, a very small number of users are affected by this support discontinuation.

Business Purpose / Client Benefit: Concur is taking this step after careful consideration of both the client’s security and ease of upgrade to the newer, more secure 1.1 and 1.2 versions of TLS. This end of life plan for TLS v 1.0 ensures our clients are communicating with Concur services in a safe and secure manner using TLS v. 1.1 and newer.
