UPS API model change

We got a message that UPS is changing their APIs model so I wanted to ask if you do all the integration or if we have to do anything?

Here is part of the message:

On June 5, 2023, UPS began the sunset process for access key authentication in favor of the more secure OAuth 2.0 model for all APIs. This change impacts all API integrations and requires updates to your existing application interface. If your integration is managed by a 3rd party, please contact the provider. The migration guide linked below can help answer questions about the transition from access keys to OAuth 2.0

OAuth Migration Guide

How will this impact my API integration?

• Beginning June 3, 2024, access keys will no longer be supported for authentication

• API integration owners must obtain new API credentials from the UPS Developer Portal and update their application interface to use the OAuth 2.0 security model

• Any legacy UPS API integrations using XML, SOAP, or legacy JSON payloads will also be required to convert to the RESTful APIs
