Facebook applications created before July 13th, 2016 will automatically update from version 2.6 to version 2.7 on July 13th, 2018.

There are no changes necessary to your Janrain applications in order to prepare, as Janrain already supports the new API version.

If you are using the Facebook API directly with a version 2.6 application, the Facebook changelog outlines all changes between 2.6 and 2.7 that you may wish to take into account.

Customer may receive a notification that they must migrate all calls to 2.7 prior to July 13th 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.
