### Detailed Change Description for Pre-digitization API in July 2022 {#detailed-change-description-for-pre-digitization-api-in-july-2022}

## Change 1 - Token Unique Reference (TUR) Support {#change-1---token-unique-reference-tur-support}

MDES will share the TUR value in Authorize Service and Request Activation Methods.

Token Unique Reference was already part of `fundingAccountInfo` object as an optional parameter but it was not populated. \*\* There is no change in the specification\*\*; this field will remain optional field.

This will help issuer to use TUR from the authorize service to token lifecycle.

Note: TUR data will be not populated in deprecated object -- cardInfo.
