# /api/v1/pipelines is deprecated

LlamaCloud API deprecated /api/v1/pipelines* without giving a shutdown date yet.

LlamaCloud API has deprecated Index v1, including the /api/v1/pipelines* endpoints, without specifying a shutdown date. Calls directed to these pipeline endpoints will fail upon removal. This deprecation encompasses pipelines, data sources, and data sinks.

## What to use instead

Migrate to Index v2 by placing files into a directory via /api/v1/beta/directories, creating an index using /api/v1/indexes, and querying through POST /api/v1/retrieval/retrieve or /api/v1/chat. The transition requires more than updating endpoint identifiers, as Index v2 re-parses and re-embeds all files, consuming parse credits while dropping configurable chunking, configurable embedding, composite retrieval, and several connectors.

Index v2 parses and embeds every file again (parse credits) and drops configurable chunking and embedding, composite retrieval and several connectors.
