Release notes through 2026-02-06

Admin Center
New:

• We’re making some changes to the default behavior of new global OAuth clients so that access and refresh tokens automatically expire. Additionally, the current deadline for existing local (non-global) OAuth clients to adopt the refresh token flow has been extended to April 1, 2027. See Working with OAuth refresh tokens.
• As a result of the removal of Password access for APIs, customers who were previously ineligible will now be enrolled in two-step verification (2SV). Between February 23 and March 5, 2026, all newly eligible customers with Zendesk authentication turned on will be enrolled in 2SV.
• Zendesk is extending permissions for viewing access and audit logs beyond the admin role to include custom roles. Previously, only admin users could audit system activity by accessing these logs. See Creating custom roles and assigning agents.
