Dear Customer,

We would like to inform you that we're discontinuing support for all authtokens from our APIs as of March 31, 2021. Any authtokens that are already in use will stop working. Please make sure to migrate from authtokens to Zoho OAuthTokens.

Zoho OAuthTokens work much like authtokens, but they have better security measures built in. When you use Zoho OAuth, two types of tokens are created, Refresh Tokens and Access Tokens. While Access Tokens are used by APIs to seek authentication from Zoho Recruit, the Refresh Token is a mechanism by which you can generate new Access Tokens. Access Tokens are only valid for one hour, and will expire soon after. Refreshing your Access Tokens decreases the risk of data breach drastically. See More

 

If your organization has already adopted OAuth tokens, there is no further action required from your side. If you haven't, we urge you to make the migration soon. See More

 

We know this is a big move, but it's one that will help you engage with your customers more securely.

 

Feel free to reach out to us at support@zohorecruit.com if you require any assistance. We'd be happy to assist you.

 

Cheers,

Team Zoho Recruit
