UPDATED - Betfair.com Login - Disabling TLS Ciphers - 3rd February 2020

[zeal]

Hi there!

I can not login to the API with my bot since this morning. Is it this modification the problem or the brexit (maybe the hungarian government blocking the API address...)?

My op system is win 7. Could it be the problem?

Regards,

Hi suckerM

You won't be affected by this release.

In addition, we are currently reporting on all customers using weak TLS ciphers and will contact all customers affected directly prior to this release.

Kind Regards

Neil

I am little concerned this may affect me , I dont fully understand it
I use old scripting language that I know very well for my API Developing my ideas on windows 10 PC, could you confirm if I have a problem, below is the info that I think you need so you can answer my question ?

oHTTP = CreateObject("WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5.1")
oHTTP.Open("POST", url, @FALSE)
a=oHttp.SetClientCertificate("API-NG Cert")
oHTTP.SetRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
oHTTP.SetRequestHeader("X-Application",appkey)
oHTTP.SetRequestHeader("Accept","application/json")
if sessionToken<>"" then oHTTP.SetRequestHeader("X-Authentication",sessionToken)
