Modernized SaaS Accelerator moves to .NET 10
🛠️ Microsoft has modernized the SaaS Accelerator reference implementation for Marketplace integrations to . NET 10 and added coding-agent guidance for new implementations.
⚠️ This matters to ISVs and developers connecting SaaS applications to Marketplace subscription and transaction workflows: . NET 8 support ends on November 10, 2026, and outdated implementations can cause delayed or failed transactions.
👉 Publishers should review every deployment, including those supporting different offers or regions.
🤖 Microsoft recommends coding-agent instructions as the starting point for new integrations, with SaaS Accelerator as an additional reference.
📌 Both are starting points that require adaptation, security review and testing before connecting to a live offer.
Review each SaaS Accelerator implementation and test the current .NET 10 version before connecting it to a live offer.
Previously
Existing SaaS Accelerator deployments can still depend on the older . NET 8 implementation.
