Meta Graph API v20.0 expiry on 24 September 2026
Meta Graph API v20.0 expired on 24 September 2026. Since then, calls fall forward to the next oldest usable version, with no error; and every change made since v20.0 applies to calls written for it. The failure is silent: calls still succeed, answered by another version, and no error says so. Meta names v26.0 as the replacement (the latest Graph API version on 8 October 2026, released 29 July 2026). The date has passed, so v20.0 can no longer be recorded as it was; compare the responses you still have with what v26.0 returns.

$ npx --allow-git=root github:agentwares/api-sunset scan
npx --allow-git=root github:agentwares/api-sunset scan lists every API version your code and config pin (Shopify, Meta Graph, Google Ads, HubSpot, Stripe and the rest of this list) with its end date, what breaks and this page's link. It needs no account and no API key, reads your files on your machine and sends nothing; its one request fetches this data. Free and MIT licensed.

What breaks after 24 Sep 2026
- For APIs, once a version is no longer usable, any calls made to it will be defaulted to the next oldest, usable version. source
- A call defaulted to a later version gets that version's behaviour; Meta lists each version's changes in its changelog. source
- Each version is guaranteed to operate for at least two years: a version expires two years after the next one is released.
- The Marketing API (ads endpoints) on the same graph.facebook.com URL has its own, shorter schedule.
How to upgrade
- Find every place your code and config pin v20.0:
npx --allow-git=root github:agentwares/api-sunset scanprints each file and line, and the variable name for a.envfile, never its value. - Read what changed between v20.0 and
v26.0in Meta's notes, and list the calls that touch it. - v20.0 no longer answers as it did, so compare the responses you logged before 24 September 2026 with what v26.0 returns now.
- Change the version string, deploy, and watch the first day's responses.
Record your real calls on the old version before the date, and replay them on the new one.
agentcheck runs scheduled checks of an endpoint. A check sends the request you define (a path or a full URL, a method and a body, with your API key as a header, stored encrypted) on a schedule and compares each response with a golden: exact text, contains, a regular expression or a JSON Schema, none of which costs an LLM call. When a response stops matching, it opens an incident and alerts you. Point one check at v20.0 and one at v26.0 with the same golden, and you see which of your calls answer differently before 24 September 2026.
Free: 1 monitored target, hourly checks, badge and public status page. Starter: 3 targets, 5-minute checks, Slack and Discord alerts, 30-day history. Recording the calls your code already makes is a different path: the trace import (POST /api/v1/targets/{id}/traces, or the agentcheck_record MCP tool) takes agent traces, a prompt and an answer, and turns them into checks judged by the LLM judge (Pro). It does not take raw HTTP requests and responses, so for an API the scheduled checks are the way in today.
Migration watch is not built. It would record the calls your code makes to Meta Graph API v20.0 and replay them on v26.0 until 24 September 2026, with nothing to set up, and email you what answers differently. If you would pay for that, say so with one click. The click is counted; nothing else is sent or stored.
Counted. Thank you; nothing else was sent.Other Meta dates
