Workspace ONE UEM Modernization - Tenant ID association and Customer-type Organization Group requirements (85987)

Workspace ONE UEM: End of Life of deprecated Workspace One UEM APIs (95397)

  • The Workspace ONE UEM team is consistently driving to improve and ensure that we are delivering a hardened and secure platform for all UEM customers. As part of delivering on that goal, the UEM team has targeted a large group of the current Workspace ONE UEM APIs with the intent to overall improve our API health.
  • The first major milestone of these changes is targeted at a key component of any API lifecycle, deprecating legacy APIs previously marked for deprecation. These APIs have held deprecated status for a considerable period, and the introduction of newer APIs has brought forth additional security requirements. In line with our commitment to enhancing the performance and security posture of Workspace ONE UEM APIs, we will remove these deprecated APIs and, where applicable, substitute them with improved alternatives.
