Microsoft has recently announced the launch of a new Asynchronous API for billing reconciliation in Partner Center. This new API, which was introduced in March 2024, is now live and partners are required to migrate to it by September 30, 2024, to ensure uninterrupted service.
The Asynchronous API was developed in response to partner feedback and is part of Microsoft's commitment to enhancing the Partner Center experience. It offers faster download times and reduces latency, particularly when handling large volumes of data.
The four APIs affected by this change include the Get invoice line items API (V1), Invoicing and reconciliation v2 API (beta, V2), Get invoice billed commercial consumption line items (V1), and Get invoice unbilled commercial consumption line items (V1).
The migration process will involve updating your code to use the new APIs, as per the documentation provided on the Partner Center portal. It's important to note that the legacy APIs will be retired on September 30, 2024.
Currently, the newest API is only available for the Microsoft Graph public/global cloud. It has not yet been made available for Azure Government, Azure Germany, or Azure China 21Vianet.
Microsoft has urged partners to migrate to the new API by the given deadline to avoid any disruption in service. They have also advised partners to share this information within their organizations and to review the documentation for migrating to the new Asynchronous API.
To assist with the migration process, Microsoft has provided a range of resources including a Migration Guide and Documentation, information on understanding your bill and reconciliation data in Partner Center, and the opportunity to register for upcoming CSP Technical Training and Partner Community Q&A Calls.
Microsoft encourages partners to utilize the readiness resources provided in the announcement. If further assistance is required or if any issues are encountered with the capability, partners are advised to open a support ticket through Partner Center.
We at Qloud Blog are committed to keeping you informed about these important updates. We encourage you to take advantage of the resources provided by Microsoft and to make the necessary preparations for this migration.
