Legacy Authority Authentication Endpoints — Deprecation Guidance

Announced: 1 November 2025
Sunset (removal no earlier than): 1 May 2026

Summary

StellaOps Authority previously exposed OAuth 2.1 endpoints at /oauth/token, /oauth/revoke, and /oauth/introspect to ease migration from early previews. Those aliases are now deprecated in favour of the canonical paths (/token, /revoke, /introspect). All responses from the legacy routes include:

  • Deprecation — RFC7231 HTTP-date set to 1 November 2025.
  • Sunset — HTTP-date advertising the planned removal on 1 May 2026.
  • Warning — RFC7234 299 warning describing the migration requirement.
  • Linkrel="sunset" URI pointing back to this guidance.

No new features (DPoP nonces, audit upgrades, policy scopes) will ship on the legacy routes. After 1 May 2026 the aliases will return 410 Gone and be removed in the next major release.

Required Actions

  • Service identities / CI pipelines Update token, revocation, and introspection calls to target the canonical /token, /revoke, and /introspect endpoints. Regenerate OpenAPI clients if they relied on the deprecated paths.
  • Gateway / proxy rules Remove explicit rewrites that target /oauth/* so traffic flows directly to the canonical paths.
  • Custom SDKs Regenerate against the refreshed Authority OpenAPI spec (/.well-known/openapi) which marks legacy operations as deprecated: true.
  • Monitoring Alert on the authority.api.legacy_endpoint audit event or the 299 Warning header to verify migrations are complete.

Timeline & Support

Date Milestone
1 Nov 2025 Deprecation headers emitted, documentation published
JanApr 2026 Observability dashboards highlight remaining usage; support assists with migrations
