Apps Script Sunset Schedule
Page Summary
Apps Script features are marked as deprecated before they are shut down, allowing time for migration to supported alternatives.
Deprecated features remain available until their sunset date, after which they cease to function or become unavailable.
Developers should upgrade existing scripts to use supported features during the deprecation period to avoid disruptions.
Google provides migration guides and resources to help developers transition away from deprecated features.
The table above lists deprecated Apps Script features, their deprecation and sunset dates, and the expected behavior after sunset.
Once a sunset date for an Apps Script feature has been announced, the feature isconsidered deprecated, but should still be available for use until the sunsetdate. During the deprecation period, we encourage you to upgrade existingscripts to use supported features.
