GitHub GraphQL API API Deprecation Guide
Developers building applications that interact with GitHub's platform, including CI/CD tools, developer dashboards, and automation scripts.
The GitHub GraphQL API does not have explicit versioning and relies on clients to adapt to schema changes. Breaking changes can occur with little advance notice, requiring continuous monitoring.
