# API version Open API v2 stops working

Calls to /v2/* on Etsy Open API stopped working on April 3, 2023.

- API: Etsy Open API (openapi.etsy.com)
- Kind: Version retirement
- Takes effect: April 3, 2023
- Calls after that day: fail
- Calls it hits: `/v2/*`
- Source: [Announcement](https://github.com/etsy/open-api/discussions/920)

## What to use instead

Use Open API v3 (/v3/application/...) with OAuth 2.0 tokens and an x-api-key header.

Open API v3 has other endpoints and needs OAuth 2.0 authorization from every connected shop again.

## Etsy Open API's words

> As of Monday, April 3, 2023 v2 will be turned off and any requests to v2 endpoints will fail.
