# The sharing_id parameter of the Web Hosting API is deprecated

Gandi API deprecated /v5/simplehosting/*, query parameter sharing_id without giving a shutdown date yet.

Gandi deprecated the query parameter sharing_id across all /v5/simplehosting/* endpoints without a shutdown date. Gandi API announced that the parameter is deprecated for web hosting routes. Requests relying on this parameter will eventually fail.

## What to use instead

Stop sending the sharing_id query parameter to the /v5/simplehosting routes.
