Deprecate a Service

What?

A service developer can deprecate a specific service version which means that application developers will no be longer be able to request new contracts, and that the service will not be displayed in the Trust1Gateway Marketplace catalog any more.

The service will however not be removed from the Gateway. All API keys pertaining to that service version will continue to function as before.

This means that when you deprecate a service, the applications which already use the service will not be impacted. This is useful if you wish to ensure new applications use a newer version of your service, without impacting existing ones.

For your information, you find the list of applications which use the service version, on the Overview tab page:
