Unsupported UPS Developer Kit API URL Will Be Eliminated

Just received the following email from UPS.

-----------------------

Reminder: Effective December 31, 2018 UPS® will disable all unsupported Developer Kit API URLs.

You are receiving this notification because our records indicate you are using an unsupported API URL: https://www.ups.com/ups.app/xml/ API name for UPS Developer Kit API transactions. Continued use of the URLs will subject your customers to unexpected outages and loss of packages with UPS.

To ensure you are using the correct URL for processing, we’ve made the latest version available in the Developer guide: https://onlinetools.ups.com/ API name. It should be used for all UPS Developer Kit API transactions.

Please verify with your IT resources that your application is using the supported production version of the URL, https://wwwcie.ups.com will remain unaffected.

For any technical questions or concerns, please submit your question via the UPS Technical support form or call 1-800-247-9035.

Checked nopCommerce 4.0 UPS Shipping settings and I see that I am using the following URL: https://www.ups.com/ups.app/xml/Rate

Anyone else receive this email?

Thanks, we'll investigate it. Here is a work item

nopCommerce 4.20 (which is what that ticket is assigned to) has a due date of "February 18, 2019."

Yet: "Effective December 31, 2018 UPS® will disable all unsupported Developer Kit API URLs."

Trying to decide if I should start stressing on this or not? :)

We had to change our API URL in March.
The new API URL is: https://onlinetools.ups.com/ups.app/xml/Rate

What version of nopCommerce are you using?

Thanks!

Looks like that fixed it over here!

@New York

We are using NopCommerce versions 3.90, 4.00, and 4.10.

Is that the whole fix? Seems to work. I love those kind of fixes, a whole lot to do about nothing. Thanks for that.

@sumnone

Yup, seems to be all that is required. We have been using this since March, and haven't had any issues on any of our sites.

We have updated UPS shipping plugin to use the latest API version using Web Services. You can see details in this commit
