Hey all, I am trying to prepare for the changes that are to come in November regarding the move from the API key to private apps.

currently, I only use this route from the API: “submissions/v3/integration/submit” which does not require the API key only the portal id and the form id. I am unsure as to what changes need to be done if any since I am not using the API key currently.

If someone can please clarify this situation, it will be greatly appreciated

Thank you!

Hey, @TanyaTikhonov 👋 To clarify, you are using the non-Authenticated endpoint, correct? — [Submit data to a form](https://legacydocs.hubspot.com/docs/methods/forms/submit_form)

`POST https://api.hsforms.com/submissions/v3/integration/submit/:portalId/:formGuid`

If so, this endpoint is not changing. Legacy endpoints are stable and supported and, unless explicitly noted, continue to be supported.

The documentation recommends switching to the [authenticated version](https://legacydocs.hubspot.com/docs/methods/forms/submit_form_v3_authentication#:~:text=As%20this%20API%20is%20authenticated%2C) of the form submit endpoint, but it is not required:

`HubSpot recommends using the authenticated v3 endpoint documented here. This endpoint has higher rate limits, and does not require listing the submitted form fields in the definition beforehand.`

In summary, this non-authenticated endpoint is not affected by the HAPI key sunset.

Have fun building! — Jaycee
