Upgrading To TLS v1.2 - Everything You Need to Know

Upgrading To TLS v1.2 - Everything You Need to Know

Dear Customers,  

Please be informed that we will be retiring support for browsers, APIs, and Plugins using older protocols by January 07, 2019. After this date, you will be required to use browsers, APIs and Plugins that support TLS v1.2 (Transport Layer Security). If not, you will be prompted to update your browsers to their latest version.

How can you adapt to this change?

What is TLS?

Transport Layer Security (TLS) is a cryptographic technology protocol used to provide secure transfer of sensitive information over the internet.


Why is this update necessary?

According to PCI standards, TLS v1.2 is the most advanced protocol yet as it eliminates the vulnerabilities faced by the previous versions, i.e, TLS v1.0 and v1.1. All users who use secure servers and browsers to access the data and API from Zoho are expected to make this update. If you are using a Webhook to link Zoho to an external site, your browsers are required to support HTTPS and TLS v1.2. 

Refer to this link for further details regarding the requirements. 


Note:
  • Click here to know if your browser’s compatible with TLS v1.2.
  • If the response {"status": 200,"message": "Connection Success","version": "TLSv1.2" is displayed, it means that you are connecting to our APIs using TLS 1.2.

  • If the response says "Connection failed", the changes mentioned in the above post must be implemented to continue integrating with our APIs.
