Submission process for Certified Connectors

Hi BreannaNery​,
Thank you for bringing this up.

According to the current Microsoft documentation, updates to an existing certified connector follow the certification process. For verified publishers, connector updates are submitted through Partner Center.

For an existing certified connector, Microsoft recommends reopening the existing offer in Partner Center and updating the relevant section under Product Overview. A new offer should not be created for an existing connector update. Once the update is submitted, Microsoft reviews the updated connector and, if it passes certification, provides a preview environment for testing. After testing is completed, the publisher can confirm Go live in Partner Center, after which Microsoft proceeds with deployment.

Since your update was submitted in July and you have not yet received a response, I would recommend checking with your usual Microsoft contact regarding the status of the submission and whether any further action is required.

For more details, please refer to the below Official Microsoft Documentation:

I hope this helps. Please feel free to reach out if you have any further questions.
Thank you.
