How to Handle API Integrations When a Provider Changes Its Authentication Method

A provider may deprecate a credential method or require new token scopes, causing integrations to fail or lose access.

Checks to make

Review provider migration dates and required scopes, identify all consumers, and test the new method in a non-production environment. Deploy progressively, monitor auth failures, and revoke old credentials after consumers are confirmed migrated.
