{% data variables.release-phases.retired_caps %} Notice: Authenticating to the {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %} API is no longer accessible using query parameters. Authenticating to the API should be done with HTTP basic authentication. For more information, including scheduled brownouts, see the blog post. {% ifversion ghes %}> Authentication to the API using query parameters while available is no longer supported due to security concerns. Instead we recommend integrators move their access token, client_id, or client_secret in the header. {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %} will announce the removal of authentication by query parameters with advanced notice. {% endif %}
