# POST /api/0.6/changeset/comment/{}/hide is deprecated

OpenStreetMap API deprecated POST /api/0.6/changeset/comment/{id}/hide without giving a shutdown date yet.

OpenStreetMap API has deprecated the POST /api/0.6/changeset/comment/{id}/hide endpoint without announcing a shutdown date. Calls made to this endpoint will fail. This change removes the legacy comment hiding route from the service.

## What to use instead

Hide a changeset comment with DELETE /api/0.6/changeset_comments/{id}/visibility instead.

## OpenStreetMap API's words

> POST /api/0.6/changeset/comment/#comment_id/hide and POST /api/0.6/changeset/comment/#comment_id/unhide were deprecated in favor of new DELETE /api/0.6/changeset_comments/#id/visibility and POST /api/0.6/changeset_comments/#id/visibility .
