# /api/v1/downtime is deprecated

Datadog API deprecated /api/v1/downtime* without giving a shutdown date yet.

Datadog has deprecated /api/v1/downtime* without announcing a specific shutdown date. This deprecation affects all requests matching the /api/v1/downtime* pattern. Once fully retired, calls to these endpoints will fail.

## What to use instead

Manage downtimes with the v2 endpoints: GET/POST /api/v2/downtime, GET/PATCH/DELETE /api/v2/downtime/{downtime_id}.
