Rationale
As part of FC-0118 (API standardization), a set of Studio contentstore
endpoints and the LMS enrollment API were re-issued at new versions rather than
changed in place. The standardization ADRs mandate changes that are breaking for
existing consumers:
- ADR 0029 replaces the legacy
{"developer_message": ..., "error_code": ...}
error shape with an RFC 7807 envelope (type, title, status, detail,
instance). Any client parsing error responses would break.
- ADR 0028 moves from
APIView to ViewSet + DefaultRouter, changing URL
patterns (trailing slashes, router-managed routing).
- ADR 0026 standardizes authentication and removes the deprecated
BearerAuthentication, so Bearer-only consumers lose access.
- ADR 0032 standardizes pagination, changing the response envelope on list
endpoints.
Issuing new versions let existing consumers migrate on their own timeline
instead of absorbing a silent breaking change. That migration window is what
this ticket closes: the old versions are now redundant, and keeping both means
every future change to these endpoints has to be made twice.
Description
All replacements are merged and available today via
#38755.

Consumers migrating should expect the RFC 7807 error envelope, router-managed
URLs (note the trailing slash), JWT or session auth in place of Bearer, and on
list endpoints the standardized pagination envelope.
Deprecation Schedule
The old versions are deprecated as of this ticket and will be removed one
named release after the release in which this deprecation ships, giving
operators and plugin authors a full release cycle on a supported version.
- Now — endpoints marked deprecated:
deprecated: true in the OpenAPI
schema, a Warning response header, and docs pointing at the replacements.
- Next named release — both versions ship; the deprecated ones still work.
- The release after — old versions removed.
Task List
This ticket is the umbrella for API deprecations arising from the FC-0118
standardization work. Further areas will be appended as their replacement
versions merge:
