Facebook Login Provider Will Automatically Update to v2.6 on April 12th, 2018

Facebook applications created before April 12th, 2016 will automatically update from version 2.5 to version 2.6 on April 12th, 2018.

There are no changes necessary to your Janrain applications in order to prepare, as Janrain has already implemented all changes needed to handle the migration to 2.6.

If you are using the Facebook API directly with a version 2.5 application, the Facebook changelog outlines all changes between 2.5 and 2.6 that you may wish to take into account.

Customer may receive a notification that they must migrate all calls to 2.6 prior to April 12th in order to avoid breaking changes. Janrain APIs will update on this date and all current Facebook functionality provided by Janrain will continue to work as it does today.

Janrain intentionally maintains backwards compatibility as late as possible to ensure customers on the oldest Facebook APIs have adequate time to make adjustments and utilize API versions that are still supported by Facebook.
