  https://github.com/acres4/foundation-documentation (folder-per-version layout, commit history read
  from the GitHub API 2026-09-06) and the 1.4 reference's inline deprecation/removal notes.
summary: >-
  Acres versions the Foundation Event Replay API as a folder per release in its documentation
  repository and marks changes inline in the reference ("Deprecated", "Removed in 1.4.3", "will be
  removed soon"). There is no dated changelog, no deprecation policy, no Sunset/Deprecation header
  contract, no SLA and no status page. The documentation repository has not been touched since
  2020-06-16, while the AcresBLE SDK repositories were last pushed 2026-08-18 — the event API
  reference is the stale surface, not the organization.
versioning:
  scheme: major.minor(.patch) — one documentation folder per minor version
  current_documented: '1.4.3'
  discovery: >-
    Not negotiable by the client. No version header, path segment or query parameter is documented;
    the version in force is whatever Foundation build the casino property runs.
versions:
- version: '1.2'
  docs: https://github.com/acres4/foundation-documentation/blob/master/apis/event/1.2/usage.md
  documented: '2019-08-13'
  notes: Historical replay channel only.
- version: '1.3'
  docs: https://github.com/acres4/foundation-documentation/blob/master/apis/event/1.3/usage.md
  documented: '2020-06-16'
  notes: Adds the real-time replay channel and the PACKET_SAS_METERS_CHANGE meter-movement packet.
- version: '1.4'
  docs: https://github.com/acres4/foundation-documentation/blob/master/apis/event/1.4/usage.md
  documented: '2020-06-16'
  notes: >-
    Current. Adds event_time, sas_queue_index, hdr_id, dest and device_serial_number to the packet
    envelope; 1.4.2 and 1.4.3 example payloads are published alongside the reference.
deprecations:
- item: raw-json query parameter
  status: deprecated
  since: '1.4.3'
  reason: The API only sends data in JSON form starting in 1.4.3, so the flag no longer selects anything.
  replacement: none needed
- item: start_idx / end_idx on the historical channel
  status: removed
  since: '1.4.3'
  replacement: start / end nanosecond timestamps
- item: MIBTime field in the data map
  status: deprecated
  since: '1.4'
  note: Reference says "will be removed soon"; no date given.
  replacement: event_time in the packet envelope
breaking_changes:
- version: '1.4.3'
  change: >-
    Packets are streamed as simple flat packets rather than as an array of flat packets. Any
    consumer written against 1.4.2 or earlier that unwraps an array breaks.
  announced_in: the reference itself, undated
deprecation_policy:
  published: false
  note: >-
    Individual deprecations are recorded, but no policy states how long a deprecated field or
    parameter is supported, how notice is given, or whether Deprecation/Sunset headers (RFC 8594)
    are ever emitted.
sunset_headers: not documented

    note: >-
      Resolves to Atlassian's own Statuspage marketing page, not a tenant status page — a false
      positive, recorded so a later run does not re-credit it.
