Now Available: Updates to OAuth 2.0 Application Management

We have updated the OAuth 2.0 Application Management tool, which is used to create apps for integrations. We have introduced two new fields: App Stage and Application Type. These fields provide drop-down lists from which you can select the appropriate value, facilitating better categorization and management of your apps. The update rollout started on July 9th, and the changes are expected to be reflected across all data centers by the end of the same week. For detailed information, check out the OAuth 2.0 Application Management Tool documentation.

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:

Certificate Implementation Date
*.concurcdc.cn Oct 2, 2025

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 updated before implementation date.

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

ECDSA 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). If your system is pinning the end-entity certificate, see the links below. 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.
