Issue/Symptoms
The Service Account (JWT) credential has been deprecated in favor of the new OAuth Server-to-Server credential. The new credential makes it easier for you to develop and maintain Adobe applications. It also removes the need to rotate certificates periodically and works out-of-the-box using standard OAuth2 libraries.
Note: None of your running Adobe applications or integrations will break until Jan 1, 2025.

-
Log in to the Adobe Developer Console.
-
From the filtering menu on the left side, select the option Has Service Account (JWT) credentia l. This way display all the projects that have a Service Account (JWT) credential.

Click the Add new credential button to start migration.
-
The new credential OAuth Server-to-Server has been added to the left side.
- Click Cancel Migration if you want to cancel the migration.
- Click the Review and Delete button after verifying if the new credential OAuth Server-to-Server is working correctly. And delete the JWT credential to complete the migration.
-
Update customer application code with OAuth2.0 library to generate access token with the new credential.
- PassportJS (Node.js)
- Spring Security (Java)
- Authlib (Python)
- View more libraries at https://oauth.net/code/
-
Review the timestamp of the last access or last used menu to verify customer application generated access tokens using the new credential.
-
Once the old credential is replaced successfully, move to last step of deleting the old credential.
-
Only the new credential for OAuth Server-to-Server remains on the left side, when migration is complete.
