TLS 1.2 for connection to backend webservice

Question

Hi,

We have a webservice exposing an API which we want to publish by using Azure Managed API.
Our API-Endpoint only accepts TLS 1.1/1.2 with client certificate.

It seems that Azure Managed API by default is not able to establish a TLS 1.2 connection.
Is there any way to achieve a TLS 1.2 connection from Azure Managed API to our Backend Service?

Many Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
Peter

Hi Peter,

We currently do not support TLS 1.1/1.2. We'll enable it in the next release. ETA: 2 weeks.

Hi Miao,

Is there any update on this?

Update: 01/22/2016

We opened a ticket with Microsoft and following is the response we received:

=======

API Management started supporting TLS 1.2 for all new tenants a little while back. This tenant probably predates that.

=======

Based on Microsoft response, we created a new tenant and it worked fine.
