|   | * PingOne Advanced Services platform version 2.1 is the final version that supports basic authentication for the PingFederate and PingAccess Admin APIs. After platform version 2.4 releases, 2.1 will move into extended support and six months later will reach its End of Life (EOL) status, as outlined in our [Support policy](../p1as_support_policy.html). Exceptions to this policy will be granted on a case-by-case basis. |

### Enhancements

#### Use OAuth to access the PingFederate Admin API

New

To connect to the PingFederate API, get an access token. This token can be retrieved using an [authorization code flow](../task_summary_table/p1as_platform_admin_api.html#_auth_code_flow) or a [client credentials flow](../task_summary_table/p1as_platform_admin_api.html#_client_cred_flow).

If you choose to use a client credentials flow, connections must be correctly configured for self-managing administrator accounts.

#### LDAPS custom domains now supported

Improved

PingDirectory LDAPS URLs are now routed through NGINX, which has improved system flexibility and supports custom domains.

#### Automated certificates for global DNS domains now available

Improved

Those using Let's Encrypt certificates to ensure that communications between PingOne Advanced Services products and services remain encrypted and secure (used by default), can now create automated certificates for global DNS domains.

#### Logging improvements

Improved

Internal log pipeline stability improvements have been made, which will further help you observe and maintain your system.

### Enhancements

#### Self-service API Beta now available

New

You and your administrators can now create and update virtual host certificates and TLS configurations yourselves through a self-service API. Configurations are automatically replicated to child regions in PingOne Advanced Services for the following applications:

* PingFederate

* PingFederate Admin API

* PingAccess

* PingAccess Admin API

* PingAccess Agents

* PingDirectory

* Delegated Admin

Learn more in [Creating and updating virtual hosts](../task_summary_table/p1as_platform_virtual_hosts.html).

If you don't want to create or update virtual hosts yourself, you can still submit a service request. Select **Advanced/Other** as your requested capability, provide a detailed description of your needs, and submit your request to the Support team.

You'll need to configure access to the administrative API before you can add or update virtual hosts. Learn more about configuring the API in [Configuring access to the administrative API](../task_summary_table/p1as_platform_admin_api.html#_platform_api_config).

You'll also need to add the **SelfService** attribute. Learn more about these attributes in [Creating custom user attributes](../task_summary_table/p1as_platform_mng_admins.html#p1as_custom_attributes). Then, update the application with the appropriate attribute mappings.
