Important notice: Migration is needed from the legacy ASAP to the latest ASAP Zoho Desk flow
We recommend upgrading to the latest version, as the older version will eventually be discontinued and will no longer receive any further enhancements or bug fixes. 
We are announcing an important update concerning the ASAP help widget in Zoho Desk. The older ASAP flow, available on both web and mobile platforms, will soon be discontinued. We urge all customers currently using the old configuration to transition to the new ASAP Help Widget. Please note that this confirmation is valid for a limited period of one month only.
What is changing?
- In the old flow, ASAP web and mobile were managed separately, with limited feature support.
- In the new version, the web and mobile are unified under a single configuration, enabling seamless sync and access to the latest features across both platforms.
The new ASAP Help Widget was launched last year, and since then, all significant enhancements and updates have been built exclusively on this version. We are now officially phasing out the older version of ASAP.
Please note that no further enhancements, bug fixes, or support will be available for the older version. We encourage all customers to transition their existing configurations to the latest version to ensure they continue to receive updates and support. How to migrate:
Web Widgets: Refer to these instructions on creating a new web help widget.
