As per our documentation we will support old versions of our API for 6 months after the release of a new version. We will inform you periodically when this is due to happen so you can make the necessary adjustments to allow your integrations to continue smoothly. We will endeavour as much as we can to keep this to an absolute minimum, but it is sometimes necessary as you can appreciate.

In light of this we will be retiring our V1 endpoint in July 2022.
