If you are using an older version of the Magento integration, we recommend that you schedule an update immediately. Note that the older version of Magento are using old APSIS One endpoints that are deprecated and will soon be removed.

The current integration is also using outdated versions of Magento and PHP that is no longer supported by both Adobe and PHP.

To know more about how updating your integration version can improve your business, we've compiled a list of benefits below:

The Magento integration versions 2.0.7, 2.0.8 and 2.1.0 are compatible with 2.4.

Magento 2.4 is the latest version of Adobe's e-commerce platform and includes new features and improvements compared to 2.3 and 2.2.

Here are some of the benefits of Magento 2.4 over 2.3 and 2.2:

  1. Improved User Experience: Magento 2.4 offers a seamless and intuitive shopping experience, providing customers with a smooth and efficient checkout process. This results in higher conversion rates and a better overall customer experience.

  2. Enhanced Security: Magento 2.4 features a robust security system that helps protect customers' personal and financial information, providing peace of mind and confidence in their online shopping experience.

  3. Advanced Personalisation: With Magento 2.4, businesses can leverage the power of AI and machine learning to deliver personalised experiences for their customers. This includes product recommendations, targeted promotions, and customised content..

  4. Modern front-end technology support: Magento 2.4 supports modern front-end technologies such as React, making it easier for developers to build and maintain e-commerce sites.

Overall, upgrading to an integration using Magento 2.4 can bring a multitude of benefits to e-commerce businesses, helping them to better engage customers, increase sales, and drive growth.

On top of having access to some cool new features, note that the Magento integration version 2.1.0 is compatible with PHP version 8.1+

PHP has announced end of life support for PHP version 7.1- 7.4.

Upgrading to PHP 8.1 offers several benefits, including improved performance, reduced memory usage, and new features such as union types, attributes, and constructors.

Additionally, PHP 7.1 has reached end-of-life status, meaning it will no longer receive security updates or bug fixes, making it important to upgrade to a supported version for security reasons.

To update the current Magento integration version that you're using, go to the installation pages Composer, GIT, FTP.
