# Overview

## Deprecation Notices

{% hint style="info" %}
The grades `uid` attribute from `GET /v2/school/grades` response has been deprecated and will be removed completely by the end of April 2024. In addition, `programs` from `/v2/school` response have been deprecated in favour of `enabled_programs` and will be removed completely by the end of April 2024. Please use `enabled_programs`instead.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
Associating children with parents through `POST` or `PATCH` `/parents` via the `child_ids` key is deprecated in favor of `POST /parents/:parent_id/children` and `PUT /parents/:parent_id/children` endpoints. That functionality is available in version `v2p0`.
{% endhint %}

## Notes

* Properties in responses with `null` values are never rendered. The absence of a property indicates it is `null`. Developers can use the models to review properties that are expected.
* For all `POST` requests, payload properties with `null` values are ignored. Empty string values are not ignored and will overwrite existing values.
* Users whose roles are `AdminUser` , i.e. ManageBac admins, cannot be updated via the API, for security reasons.
* All timestamp fields are in ISO8601 format, i.e `yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss.sssTZ`, for example `2017-11-06T04:35:00.000GST`.
* Errors are returned if a user cannot be found, e.g. `parent_ids`, `child_ids`.
* Parameters available for `index` actions stack using `AND` logic.&#x20;
* Note that soft deletion of records (such that `deleted_at` is set) does not change the record's modification timestamp. Thus, `deleted_at` parameter will return only records that have been marked as deleted, and `modified_since` will only return records that have changed, but not records that have been deleted since the given modification date.
* We want this API to be useful to you. If you have questions or concerns please contact us at <api@managebac.com>.
