Manage module versions API reference

This topic provides reference information about API endpoints that let your deprecate module versions in your organization’s private registry.

Introduction

When you deprecate a module version, HCP Terraform adds warnings to the module's registry page and to run outputs when anyone uses the deprecated version.

Note: Module deprecation is available in the HCP Terraform Plus Edition. Refer to HCP Terraform pricing for details.

After deprecating a module version, you can revert that deprecated status to remove the warnings from that version in the registry and outputs. For more details on module deprecation, refer to Deprecate module versions.

Note: The ability to deprecate module versions is in public beta. All APIs and workflows are subject to change.
