Just to add some additional context here, the above date has been pushed out to August 31, 2024.

Caution: FedEx Web Services Tracking, Address Validation, and Validate Postal Codes WSDLS will be disabled on August 31, 2024. The SOAP based FedEx Web Services is in development containment and has been replaced with FedEx RESTful APIs. To learn more and upgrade your integration from Web Services to FedEx APIs, please visit the FedEx Developer Portal.

@xqiu @ajbonner does M2 have the new API?

@fballiano Yes, see magento/magento2#34642

well, it's now too late, we'll have to see what happens

Seems it's been moved to 21st Aug

Just FYI, we published a PHP SDK for the REST API in case anyone wants to take a crack at updating the OpenMage model this should make it easier. https://github.com/ShipStream/fedex-rest-php-sdk

@vipin12117 deleted comment ... dont advertise M2 modules here.

I just used https://github.com/ShipStream/fedex-rest-php-sdk to implement a change to implement fedex ship rate collection and package tracking. But the change requries 2 things that might not be OK to do pull request. Please advice.

The commit:
c420e11

The problems:

1. uses shipstream/fedex-rest-sdk, but currently it's not updated with fedex tracking API schema, so need to use a patch branch for it to solve it simply. fedex Track API has a new JSON schema, needs to be upgraded. ShipStream/fedex-rest-php-sdk#3

2. Composer installing shipstream/fedex-rest-sdk requires PHP 8.1+, so I've to change php version as well for this commit. guess this is not allowed for merging, but don't know how to solve it.

Hi @xqiu, that's looking great!! However, you closed your PR, so I'm confused on what the issue is exactly?

Note, it's been crickets from FedEx on their WebServices API EOL. Indeed, the old API is still working. At this point, with the peak season upon us, I'm sure they won't take this up again until January at the earliest. Their own API team admitted to me that there are gaps in the API functionality, so they put the cart before the horse in announcing the EOL this summer.

That said, would be great to get this completed in plenty of time for everyone to upgrade.

Note, the SDK does require PHP 8.1 because it's based on Saloon which requires PHP 8.1. See #4124

@colinmollenhour Thanks. Do you mean the PR here: ShipStream/fedex-rest-php-sdk#2 ? it's because it's not the proper change, just a quick hack. The proper change is to download the Fedex track API's new schema. Just I don't have experience on how to fix it exactly later with Saloon.

Our fedex web service secretes were somehow disabled by the fedex team, so I've to move quickly to get it working. Interestingly, my other fedex web service account is still working OK. That's why I come up with a solution of having both WebSerrvice and REST API.

If you think it's OK to submit it for pull request, I'll do so.

Thanks.

We'll get a proper fix for it in the coming days. Thanks for reporting it!
