# GET / removes parameter hide stops working

Microlink API deprecated GET /, query parameter hide without giving a shutdown date yet.

Microlink removed the hide query parameter from GET / without specifying an effective date. Requests relying on this parameter fail.

## What to use instead

Use styles instead of the removed hide parameter.
