AWS SDK v2 Support in QFlow Ends December 31, 2026
Table of Contents
What’s Changing
AWS has deprecated SDK v2 for JavaScript, and QFlow is aligning with that decision. Effective January 1, 2027, QFlow will no longer support creating, editing, or running workflows built on AWS SDK v2. SDK v3 is already the default for all new workflows and is fully supported today. Use the transition window now to migrate with confidence.
Why Now?
Continuing with SDK v2 exposes workflows to unpatched vulnerabilities, incompatibility with newer AWS services, and reduced AWS support. Migrating ensures your workflows stay secure, reliable, and future-proof.
Migration Timeline
| Phase | Timeline | What It Means |
|---|---|---|
| Current State | Release – QFlow 1.23 | SDK v2 and v3 are both supported. SDK v3 is the default for new workflows. |
| Transition Period | July – Dec 31, 2026 | SDK v2 workflows continue to run. Begin migrating to SDK v3 now. |
| End of Support | Jan 1, 2027 onward | SDK v2 workflows can no longer be created, edited, or run. |
4 Simple Steps to Migrate
- Open your QFlows built using SDK v2 in the editor.
- Switch the AWS SDK version from v2 to v3 on all AWS nodes and save.
- Test the workflow in a test account with relevant data.
- Validate results on TotalCloud before and after migration.
