versioning:
  scheme: path-and-product
  description: >-
    There is no single APILayer API version. Each product carries its own contract version in
    the SwaggerHub document (most are 1.0.0; Marketstack and Serpstack are at 2.0.0) and only
    some products carry a version segment in the path - Exchange Rates API serves
    https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/v1, while exchangerate.host and ipapi.com serve unversioned
    roots. A client cannot pin a version on the unversioned hosts.
  current:
    - api: ExchangeRate.host API
      contract_version: 1.0.0
      path_version: none
    - api: Exchange Rates API
      contract_version: 1.0.0
      path_version: v1
    - api: ipapi
      contract_version: 1.0.0
      path_version: none
deprecation:
  policy_published: false
  sunset_header: false
  deprecation_header: false
  deprecated_operations: []
  note: >-
    No deprecation or sunset policy is published anywhere on apilayer.com, docs.apilayer.com or
    the product sites, and no operation in any captured spec carries `deprecated: true`.
    Products do leave the catalog without a machine-readable notice - giflayer and streetlayer
    still have repositories in APILayer's GitHub organization but appear nowhere on
    https://apilayer.com/products/ (checked 2026-09-12) - and nothing in the estate records when
    or whether their endpoints were retired. APILayer also ships a `maintenance_mode` error (code 503) but does not document a planned
    maintenance window or notification channel.

status_page_note: >-
  Status is published PER PRODUCT, on per-product subdomains. There is no status.apilayer.com -
  the host does not resolve - so a customer of several APILayer products has no single place to
  see whether the platform is healthy.

    but no numeric availability target, credit schedule or support-response commitment is
