Zoho CRM API v2.0 Migration Update
Dear Customer,
Zoho Team is in the process of moving from Dot (.) notation in API Names to the Double Underscore ( _ _ ) notation for all components created in Zoho Extensions.
Usage of Dot notation will be deprecated by May 20th 2020,
Zoho Team will migrate all the orgs and extensions by 20th May to compatible versions. All the Orgs having SMS-Magic Interact version 11 or later, will be migrated by Zoho to SMS-Magic Interact version 28.
SMS Magic has released version 28 on Zoho Marketplace, You can update it by yourself manually from Marketplace to version 28.
How it will impact SMS Magic Customers -:
All the API Name references will be updated to the new notation throughout our extension (Custom Function, Widget Code, External API’s ),
If you do not have any custom function/Widget Code or External API’s implemented, then you just need to upgrade the extension.
In ZOHO CRM, go to Setup > Developer Space > APIs. If the API dashboard displays a banner that your application uses the v1.0 APIs and you have any custom function/Widget Code or External API’s implemented, you need to make sure that old notations are replaced with new notations as mentioned in below example-:
Old Notation: smsmagic4.ExternalId , smsmagic4.SMS_History New Notation: smsmagic4__ExternalId , smsmagic4__SMS_History
