Migration path

We recommend planning a migration to Aleph V2. While V1 APIs will remain supported for existing integrations, new features will be V2-only.

Ready to explore V2? → See Migration Decision Matrix to understand what's new and plan your upgrade.

Want to stay on V1 for now? → Your existing code will continue to work. You can also use Phase 1 of the Staged adoption strategy to monitor your V1 orders via V2 API without code changes.
