# POST /v1/issuing/authorizations/{}/approve is deprecated

Stripe API deprecated POST /v1/issuing/authorizations/{id}/approve without giving a shutdown date yet.

## What to use instead

Approve in the response body of the issuing_authorization.request webhook ({"approved": true}) instead of calling the endpoint.

- API: Stripe API (api.stripe.com)
- Kind: Endpoint removal
- Takes effect: no date given yet
- Calls after that day: fail
- Calls it hits: `POST /v1/issuing/authorizations/{id}/approve`
- Source: [Announcement](https://docs.stripe.com/api/issuing/authorizations/approve)
- Verified: November 6, 2026, against Stripe API's own pages
- Page: https://www.okapi.bot/providers/stripe-api/breaking-changes/post-v1-issuing-authorizations-approve-is-deprecated/

## Stripe API's words

> This method is deprecated. Instead, respond directly to the webhook request to approve an authorization.
