Hi, I received the following announcement from MailChimp. Just this affect the MailChimp plugin at all?
On July 30, 2018, we?ll make a security change to the MailChimp API that will disrupt calls made by your API client or integration unless the proper configurations are in place. This change comes as part of the new security standards that are required by the PCI Security Standards Council.
Beginning on July 30, HTTP calls will automatically redirect to HTTPS. Before this date, we strongly encourage you or your integration?s developer to review the information below to make sure your calls continue to work as intended.
If you manage the API client
Verify that your API library or operating system that runs your API client can either make HTTPS calls or follow redirects. As a best practice, we recommend that any necessary updates support TLS version 1.2.
If you use an integration
Navigate to the API keys page in your MailChimp account, and scroll down to the Authorized applications section. As a best practice, remove any authorized applications you don?t use. For the integrations you do use, check each platform you?re connected to and make sure your integrations and platforms are up to date. If you have any questions, reach out to the integration?s developer to make sure the integration communicates with the MailChimp API over HTTPS. If the connection is not secure by July 30, you?ll no longer see data flowing from the platform to your MailChimp account.
If you have any questions about this change, please let us know.
Thanks,
The MailChimp Support team
