Hi

I had ignored this announcement too until today as I assumed Betfair were just killing off some really old legacy protocol. Wrong !! I discovered I couldnt login today either.

I had pretty much just copied and pasted Betfairs sample login code so my understanding of it isnt great. Anyways it should hopefully be simple for you to fix, basically you just need to recompile your Application but target .NET Version 4.7. This allows the OS to pick which TLS version it uses, so presumably my Win10 is now choosing TLS V1.2 rather than V1.1 before my recompile. All working fine now after switching to .NET Framework 4.7

Hi there
my question is this - I got the non interactive login going using python about a year or so ago. I set up using your instructions on the forum
I used the python sample code
can you update the tutorial to reflect these changes or am I totally missing the point here
thanks
Clive

Please be aware that from - 19th February, the only protocol for securing the communication between Betfair servers and web browsers at login will be TLS 1.2. Older versions (TLS.1.0, TLS.1.1 or SSLv3) will no longer work.

Although we don't expect this to have an impact on API clients we'd recommend that you refer to the following resources depending on your programming language/framework to confirm that your using TLS 1.2 or above:

Overview of Application’s & Adoption - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transp...s_and_adoption

.NET - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dot...rogramming/tls

Java - http://www.ateam-oracle.com/tls-and-java/

PHP - http://php.net/manual/en/migration56.openssl.php

Python - https://docs.python.org/2/library/ssl.html
