specification: API Commons Lifecycle
specificationVersion: '0.1'
provider: Advance Auto Parts
providerId: advance-auto-parts
generated: '2026-08-30'
method: probed
source: >-
  DNS and HTTPS probes for a status page, versioning policy, deprecation policy and
  changelog on every Advance Auto Parts host, 2026-08-30.
status_page:
  present: false
  evidence: >-
    status.advanceautoparts.com has no DNS record (NXDOMAIN). No Statuspage,
    Better Stack or equivalent tenant was found for the company, and no status link is
    reachable from any probed host. NO StatusPage pointer is emitted.
versioning:
  policy_published: false
  scheme: unknown
  evidence: >-
    No public API reference exists to state a versioning scheme. The `/v1` path segment in
    this repository's declared baseURL comes from repo-local OpenAPI files, not from an
    Advance Auto Parts publication, and its host does not serve (HTTP 503).
deprecation:
  policy_published: false
  sunset_header: unknown
  rfc8594: false
  evidence: >-
    No deprecation policy, no Sunset or Deprecation header documentation, and no deprecated
    operations verifiable against a published contract. NO Deprecation pointer is emitted.
sla:
  published: false
  evidence: >-
    No public SLA. Integration terms are set inside supplier and Advance Professional
    partner agreements, both of which sit behind a login.
changelog:
  published: false
  evidence: >-
    No dated API changelog or release-notes surface was reachable on any host. The
    MyAdvance / Advance Professional community (my.advancepro.com) publishes a sitemap of
    38+ marketing pages but no changelog page among them.
note: >-
  Every lifecycle signal an integrator needs — status, versioning, deprecation, SLA,
  changelog — is absent from Advance Auto Parts' public surface. This is a recorded
  absence built from live probes, not an untried check.
