Deprecation of the old Webmaster Tools API

Thursday, March 12, 2015

Last fall we announced the
new Webmaster Tools API, which
helps you to automate a number of important aspects using code. With the
pending shutdown of ClientLogin,
we’re going to turn down the
old Webmaster Tools API on
April 20, 2015.

If you’re still using the old API, getting started with the new one is fairly easy. The new API
covers everything from the old version except for messages and keywords. We have examples in
Python,
Java, as well as
OACurl
(for command-line fans and quick testing). Additionally, there’s the
Site Verification API
to add sites programmatically to your account. The
Python search query data download
will continue to be available for the moment, and replaced by an API in the upcoming quarters.

As always, should you have any questions, you can post in our
Webmaster Help Forum.

We archive Search Central announcements because client questions often trace back to a change that was announced years ago. Reading the original is faster than reconstructing it from second-hand summaries.
