# GraphQL API removed items **(FREE)**

GraphQL is a versionless API, unlike the REST API.
Occasionally, items have to be updated or removed from the GraphQL API.
According to our [process for removing items](index.md#deprecation-and-removal-process), here are the items that have been removed.

## GitLab 16.0
