This notice applies to customers who use SuiteCloud SDK tools. SuiteCloud SDK version 24.2, released in August 2024, uses the OAuth 2.0 protocol for authorization. This version includes the following updates:
- A machine-to-machine authentication option is now available for SuiteCloud IDE plug-ins and extensions.
- New commands that support account setup and authentication for automated environments are available in the SuiteCloud CLIs.
The new authentication options and CLI commands introduced in version 24.2 replace the Token-Based Authentication (TBA) option, which uses OAuth 1.0. SuiteCloud SDK version 24.1 is the last version that supports TBA and OAuth 1.0. SuiteCloud SDK version 25.1 is targeted to be released in February 2025. After version 25.1 is released, version 24.1 will no longer be available for download. Only SuiteCloud SDK versions 24.2 and 25.1 will be available for download and installation. Both of these versions support only OAuth 2.0.
What is Changing?
Starting February 2025, SuiteCloud SDK version 24.1 will no longer be available for new installations. Existing installations will continue to work. However, OAuth 1.0 support will eventually be removed from SuiteCloud SDK version 24.1 and older versions. At that point, version 24.1 and older versions of the tools will stop working.
Recommended Action: Upgrade to the latest version of SuiteCloud SDK Tools If you are still using older versions of the tools released in SuiteCloud SDK version 24.1, you should upgrade to the latest version as soon as possible. The following table shows the latest version for each SuiteCloud SDK tool.
SuiteCloud SDK Tools | SuiteCloud SDK Version 24.1 | SuiteCloud SDK Version 24.2 |
|---|
Tools version with OAuth 1.0 (TBA support) | Tools version with OAuth 2.0 |
SuiteCloud CLI for Java | 2024.1 | 2024.2 |

SuiteCloud Extension for Visual Studio Code | 1.6.0 | 2.0.0 |
