# POST /v1/persons is deprecated

Pipedrive API deprecated POST /v1/persons without giving a shutdown date yet.

Pipedrive deprecated the POST /v1/persons endpoint on April 14, 2025, without announcing a shutdown date. This deprecation affects requests sent to POST /v1/persons. Once the removal takes effect, calls using this endpoint will fail.
