End-of-life Target Cutoff: 25.1
Replacement: POST /user-management/v2/users/search
Details: If you use GET /user-management/v1/users to get a list of users for a tenant, update your app or service to use the replacement API. Do so before the EoL target to avoid interruptions in your service. The replacement API provides better performance and scalability, pagination support, and simpler functionality. The deprecated API will continue to function as expected until the EoL cutoff.
API: GET V29,V30: /services/30.0/agents/{agentId}/agent-settings
Status: to-be replaced
End-of-life Target Cutoff: 2024-2
Replacement: GET API: V30 -/services/30.0/agents/{agentId}/agent-configuration
Details: We have recently updated the Agent Settings API by marking it as 'Internal' in our latest release due to the sensitivity of the information it encompasses. Despite this change, existing customers retain access to the API endpoints, and its functionality remains unaffected.
However, it's important to note that this update restricts usage for new customers. To accommodate this change and ensure continued functionality, we recommend utilizing the new agent-configuration API as needed.
Rest assured, the previous latest public version of the agent settings API is still accessible for reference and use until End-of-life.
End of Life: Summer 2023 Release

Legacy authentication methods were deprecated in 2022. With the Summer 2023 release, they are moving to End-of-Life status and will cease to function between the Summer and Fall 2023 releases. If you have not already updated your app's authentication, use the global authentication method. There is only one token endpoint with the global method, /auth/token. This endpoint facilitates:

  • user authentication through OpenID Connect.
  • other forms of authentication specified by OAuth2.0.

The endpoints in the following API groups were deprecated:

Blog: Why your data is the difference between AI hype and AI impact - Heather Hughes

Customer experience leaders everywhere are racing to harness AI to deliver faster, smarter, and more personalized interactions. The promise is huge, but here's the truth: even the most advanced AI tools can't deliver breakthrough results without the right data behind them. AI doesn't just need data, it needs AI-ready data. Data that's clean, connected, and contextualized so it can learn, predict, and act with precision. Without it, your AI investments risk becoming expensive experiments instead of game-changing solutions.

What has been the biggest challenge to implementing Agents so far?
