ebayomatic dev cert update
I received an update email from ebay regarding changes to the cert authority change. Do I need to change anything within the plugin?
eBay is switching the certificate authority (CA) used for our public certificates. We plan to replace the existing CA from DigiCert with Sectigo (previously Comodo). This will impact all HTTPS connections. We sent several communications last year with the date for the switchover as Jan 31, 2022. We have moved this date to <b>April 30, 2022</b> to give developers enough time to be prepared for this change.
We require that you start testing the Sectigo CA authority in Sandbox if not done so already. The below endpoints in Sandbox are already enabled to accept certificates from Sectigo:
Trading API: https://api.sandbox.ebay.com
Shopping API: https://open.api.sandbox.ebay.com
Finding API: https://svcs.sandbox.ebay.com
Additionally, you can refer to this KB article for more information about the steps you can take based on your use case.
On <b>April 30, 2022</b>, we will make the switch in production and any connections to eBay APIs using the <b>older certificates will be rejected</b>. Please make sure to test and plan to migrate to the new Sectigo CA before the stated timeline.
