Deprecated Required Automatically On Impact: High AI Enriched
Description

The Authorized SP Assertion Consumer Service (ACS) entries that rely on the deprecated SHA-1 signing algorithm will be deleted on May 16, 2025. See More

Detailed Description

The SHA-1 signing mechanism for ACS records was deprecated in the 2H 2024 release and replaced by the SHA-256 signing certificate for improved security. Any ACS records still using the SHA-1 signing mechanism will be automatically deleted in the 1H 2025 release. Organizations that want to continue using integrations with Authorized SP Assertion Consumer Services must migrate these records to the SHA-256 signing mechanism before the release.

Impact Assessment

Customers must plan and complete migration before May 16, 2025 to avoid service disruption. must migrate these records to the SHA-256 signing mechanism before the release. Failure to act before the deletion date will result in loss of functionality, requiring immediate corrective action post-deletion.

Test Recommendations
• Verify that the deprecated feature is identified in all affected environments (production, staging, sandbox). • Test alternative workflows or replacement features to ensure parity with current functionality. • Validate that all existing configurations have been migrated to the new solution before the deletion date. • Conduct regression testing on downstream processes that depend on the deprecated functionality. • Test all API integrations that use the deprecated or updated endpoints to confirm continued operation.
