Control-M Web Services and Messaging API Deprecation
5 October 2023
BMC is alerting you to a change in support, in accordance with the BMC Software Product Support Policy.
As of version 9.0.21, Control-M Automation API enables you to perform services or commands that are equivalent to most of the Web Services and Messaging APIs.
Therefore, as of 1 November 2023, Control-M Web Services and Messaging API is deprecated. This product is no longer enhanced, but Control-M Web Services and Messaging API is fully supported until version 9.0.22 (released no earlier than February 2025). This change does not impact the Control-M for Web Services, Java, and Messaging plug-in.
