API Release Notes, June 2025

New This Month

Preview: Detokenizer (DTK) v5 API

The FIPS Compliant v5 Credit Card Detokenization API will be set to launch within the CCPS environment for IBCP customers. This compliance-driven initiative aligns with the Federal Information Processor Standards (FIPS) to ensure robust protection of sensitive data, per U.S. federal requirements. For customers with entities in CCPS and IBCP card programs, the new Detokenizer (DTK) functionality will be integral to the payment file process.

Note: The current v4 API service will remain unchanged for other environments.

Overview

The Detokenizer service ensures secure transmission of sensitive data (card number) to customers as part of the remittance file creation process running at caller applications like ICS and CWS, in which the full, unmasked credit card number is required for the correct application of payments.

API Details

There are two APIs which are developed as part of Detokenizer (DTK) v5 and they must be called in sequence.

The Detokenizer v5 API exposes the following resources and these must be called sequentially:

Resource Description
RSAPublicKey Retrieves the RSA public Key via public key API
Credit Card Account Details Retrieves the credit card number via Detokenizer API

The first DTK v5 API will return the RSA public key and version of the RSA public key. The caller needs to wrap their symmetric key using this public key and this wrapped symmetric key needs to be passed to the second DTK v5 API along with the version earlier mentioned, and the mandatory credit card GUID received from client request to provide encrypted credit card account number.

Preview: New Expense Configuration v4 APIs

The Expense Configuration Service will release GET API operations, as follows:

GET Attendee Types for a user’s expense group v4 API

A GET Attendee Types v4 API operation will be released to allow for the retrieval of all attendee types applicable to the user’s expense group based on their userId.

GET User Expense Groups v4 API

A GET Groups v4 API operation will be released to allow for the retrieval of an expense group applicable to a user based on their userId, including policies, payment types and attendee types linked to the group.

GET Company Expense Groups v4 API

A GET Company Groups v4 API operation will be released to allow for the retrieval of all expense groups applicable for a company based on their companyID.

GET Company Expense Groups by ID v4 API

A GET Company Groups by Id v4 API operation will be released to allow for the retrieval of an expense group by id, including policies, payment types and attendee types linked to the group.

Preview: Public Certificate Root Change

To maintain compliance with evolving security standards and ensure uninterrupted compatibility with Mozilla-based browsers, we are transitioning our digital certificates to the updated DigiCert Global Root G2 and G3 authorities:

DigiCert Global Root G2 – for RSA-based certificates DigiCert Global Root G3 – for ECDSA-based certificates

This proactive update follows DigiCert’s announcement regarding Mozilla’s planned deprecation of the DigiCert Global Root CA.

Adopting the new root certificates is critical to avoid potential trust errors or connection issues when accessing our services via Mozilla browsers.

Target Implementation Dates:

Clients who have not pinned the certificate do not need to take any action as the new certificate will automatically be updated when it becomes available.

RECOMMENDATION – Please Read Carefully

Certificate pinning is not recommended.

While it may add a layer of control, pinning certificates introduces risks. Certificates used by SAP Concur are renewed on a regular basis. Pinned certificates are not updated automatically and may cause service disruptions if not renewed before expiry.

FOR SAP ICS Customers

Please refer to section 2 “Which SSL certificates do I need to have installed” of 2914977 - FAQ: Concur Certificates, Authentication, and Connectivity for detailed instructions.

ACTION REQUIRED

If your systems pin the root or intermediate certificate, you must update your trust store to include the following certificates:

RSA Certificates Download Links

Note: Most modern systems now prefer ECDSA for connections, while RSA is still used primarily by legacy systems. To ensure full compatibility, please ensure that your systems trust both ECDSA and RSA certificates.

CERTIFICATE CHAIN LINKS: (consist of end-entity, Intermediate, and Root certificates respectively). Please make sure to open the link in an Incognito or Private browser window to ensure there is no cached data causing outdated or incorrect content to appear
