Definitions
Deprecation is a status applied to software features to indicate that they should be avoided, typically because they have been superseded.
Although deprecated features remain in the software, their use may raise warning messages recommending alternative practices, and deprecation may indicate that the feature will be removed in the future. Features are deprecated — rather than immediately removed — in order to provide backward compatibility, and give programmers who have used the feature time to bring their code into compliance with the new standard.

Deprecations List
| Deprecated Item | Became deprecated in version | Will be removed in version | Recommended Alternative | How to migrate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Actions | v8.x | Events | Use events in your flow | |
| Specializing the data type of an attribute, the cardinality of a relation, or relation targets | v11.2 | - | Change the base definition or make copy the element with a different name in the desired module. | |
| Theming support | v13.0 | NPM Libraries | Create a custom front-end based on the NPM Libraries we provide. We prefer an Angular front-end for which we provide a Material theme default project that may be used as a starting point. These NPM libraries make use of the UI REST API V2, which could be used as an alternative if the NPM libraries do not fit your needs. | |
| Service call event parameters | v17.5 | - | Can safely be removed, because they had no effect in the Runtime. | |
| Custom flow events on containers | v17.5 | Mapping container type events | Specify an event on the container type, and map that event to the desired flow event on the container. |
Technical deprecations
| Deprecated Item | Became deprecated in version | Will be removed in version | Recommended Alternative | How to migrate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| MetaModel Generator plugin | Not yet | Not needed anymore. Via parameters | ||
| @AquimaProjectScope annotation | v15 | No alternative. We don't intend to support custom code for certain projects only, since Blueriq is a platform where any project can run on. | If certain custom components are only required for certain projects, we advise to run these on a separate Runtime with the required custom components included. | |
| Basic authentication for the Management Service | v17 | Use Bearer authentication instead. | A token has to be requested from Keycloak, see Management Service#Authentication | |
| Studio Server backup tool | v17.11 | Use the backup and restore API endpoints to create/restore backups. | See Backing up data for documentation on the API endpoints and a PowerShell script that may be used as an alternative to the backup tool. |
