Reminder to migrate to updated Google Data APIs

Over the past few years, we’ve been updating our APIs with new versions across Drive and Calendar, as well as those used for managing Google Apps for Work domains. These new APIs offered developers several improvements over older versions of the API. With each of these introductions, we also announced the deprecation of a set of corresponding APIs.

As
communicated* back in September, the deprecation period for these APIs is coming to an end. As of April 20, 2015, we will discontinue these deprecated APIs. Calls to these APIs and any features in your application that depend on them will not work after April 20th.


When updating, we also recommend that you use the opportunity to switch to OAuth2 for authorization. Older protocols, such as ClientLogin, AuthSub, and OpenID 2.0, have also been deprecated and are scheduled to shut down.

In the coming weeks, we’ll be contacting domain administrators whose applications are still using these deprecated APIs with an email reminder and guidance on specific migration paths. 

* The Documents List API was not included in our communication in September, but its deprecation was
announced in September of 2012.


Note: all launches are applicable to all Google Apps editions unless otherwise noted
