3612956 - ContentFile API is deprecated

Symptom

The ContentFile API is showing showing as DEPRECATED on Swagger.

Environment

SAP SALES CLOUD CPQ

Cause

The ContentFile API is marked as deprecated as it doesn't have all required endpoints to fully manage content documents (e.g. permissions cannot be set via that API) 

Resolution

  • ContentFile API is marked as deprecated so it would not be used by new implementations and to ensure that the DocumentTemplate API endpoint would be used instead.
  • There are no plans to remove the usage of this API, however, it is advised for new implementations of CPQ to use the DocumentTemplate API instead of the ContentFile API endpoint.
