Breaking change notification

20th August 2023

As part of its ongoing commitment to the security of its customer’s information, Fourth will be updating its platform to require all connections to use TLS 1.2 or higher from 9 January 2024. Older versions of TLS will be retired.

TLS is the encryption method used to secure communications over HTTPS. This will have no impact on SFTP connections.

10 Feb 2016 — Support for HTTPS added

To support secure connections, the web service URL now uses HTTPS.

31 Oct 2014 — Documentation for this API consolidated with the Sales Submission

Both this integration and the Inventory Sales Submission integration are now documented in the same guide.
