• Our API will switch to requiring TLS version 1.2 and above as of May 31, 2018. You must verify that your code is properly configured in order to ensure no interruption in connectivity. To verify compliance, use your API client to send a GET https://www.howsmyssl.com/a/check API request. You should expect a response that contains { "tls_version" : "TLS 1.2" } or above. If your client is not compliant with TLS 1.2 or above, you must upgrade your systems accordingly in order to avoid a connectivity interruption.
