If you are receiving this communication, you are amongst the last 5% of our customer traffic who are still on very old versions of our Client API.

🚧

Arkose Labs Client API version V1 is reaching End of Life on June 1, 2023 and customers who are still on Client API V1 version must migrate to V2 by June 1, 2023.

Why is this change happening?

Client API v2 provides better security, simplified build process, improved responsiveness along with Observability support and the capability to onboard new Games, MatchKey.

Client API V2 migration started around Q2 2022 and so far 94% of our customer traffic has already been migrated to Client API V2.

How does the Client API V2 migration work?

The steps to migrate to Client API v2 is documented in our Client-Side Instructions document.

What will be the impact of our users and our company?

Below are the benefits of Client API V2

• Better security: Better secured integration through CSPs, SRI end-to-end and various vulnerability fixes. Enhanced security of our next generation challenges.
• Simplified Build Process: Detection upgrades through better data signals and support of unified integration builds.
• Support Modal/Lightbox mode: Improved user experience - Modal lets us make the challenge size larger for the next generation of challenges.
