# POST /v1/integrations/chat/oauth is deprecated

Novu API deprecated POST /v1/integrations/chat/oauth without giving a shutdown date yet.

Novu has deprecated the POST /v1/integrations/chat/oauth endpoint without a shutdown date. Calls made to this route are subject to removal and will fail. This change affects any integration workflows relying on the legacy chat OAuth endpoint.

## What to use instead

Generate the OAuth URL with POST /v1/integrations/channel-connections/oauth for connect workflows, or use POST /v1/integrations/channel-endpoints/oauth to link a user.
