Family Search connection no longer working

[RickBailey]

I have been successfully importing data from Family Search using Roots Magic 8.5.0.0 for about 6 months. A couple days ago, Roots Magic wouldn’t auto-connect. I can still access Family Search directly using my same user ID and password. Is anyone else having this issue? Any suggestions to resolve it?

Thank you

RM7 not accessing FamilySearch database

On December 4, 2023 we released a blog article and email announcing Ancestry and FamilySearch’s plans to turn off the old login procedures used in RootsMagic 7 & RootsMagic 8. Both have now been turned off. Only RootsMagic 9.1 that uses the new OAuth technology supporting two-step verification would continue to work at that point.
