Productboard's v2 API becomes the only path as v1 heads for a July sunset

api-v2migrationsearch-filtersdeveloper-experiencedeprecation
◆Current state
Productboard's developer surface is consolidating on the v2 public API, which went GA in April and made v1 a deprecated path with a July 8, 2026 sunset. Recent work is steady, additive refinement of v2's query model: new filters for note type, metadata source, and custom fields, plus reference docs for individual objects. The cadence is high, but each change is narrow.
◆Where it's heading
The arc is a methodical v2 build-out: restructure the search and filter format once, then layer on filterable dimensions release by release. Breaking changes are being front-loaded ahead of the v1 sunset, after which the API should settle into purely additive growth. Reference documentation is being filled in alongside, signalling a push to get integrators onto v2 well before July.
◆Prediction
Expect more filter and field-level query parameters on the v2 search endpoints, plus a final round of v1 migration notices as the July 8 sunset nears.

◆Recent moves

  1. 6d ago

    Filter notes by type with the new type[] parameter

    A narrow but useful addition to v2's note filtering: a type[] array replaces the deprecated single-value parameter, fitting the release-by-release expansion of the search model.

    Per-object reference documentation added

    Reference documentation now describes each object's fields and relationships. A docs-only fill-in that supports v2 onboarding rather than changing the API.

    Filter entities by originating source system

    Adds metadata.source filters to List and Search entities, letting integrators query by originating system and record ID. Another incremental widening of v2's filter surface.

    Add HTML deep links; remove legacy search format

    Entity and note responses now carry html deep links into the web UI, while the legacy search format is removed. Additive convenience paired with the ongoing pre-sunset cleanup.

    Custom-field filtering in entity search

    Entity search gains custom-field filtering with type-specific operators and a simplified return.fields option, deepening v2 search well past the initial restructuring.

    Remove legacy flat search properties

    Legacy flat search properties are stripped from the members and teams endpoints, pushing integrators onto the structured filter, search, and return objects ahead of the v1 sunset.
