Hii there, we have one API to update associations in deal for contcats/companies  
[https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/methods/deals/associate\_deal](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/methods/deals/associate_deal)  
But its been deprecated. Can you please tell how long it can be used in API calls and not getting fully replaced/closed.

Thanks.

Welcome, [@Seema\_Pandey](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/78704).

I’m unaware of a concrete time frame for when this endpoint would be fully removed, but final sunset announcements will be posted on the [HubSpot API Changelog](https://developers.hubspot.com/changelog).

That said, I must encourage you to begin using the [CRM Associations API](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/methods/crm-associations/crm-associations-overview) _as soon as possible_ to avoid potentially breaking changes. Please let me know if I can clarify anything about how to best use it!

Hi there,

How do I pick up changes on the CRM Associations API? Is there no way for me to obtain incremental changes? As far as I can determine from the API documentation, I need to hit the API with each object if I would like to see it’s associations.

I cannot use the “Get recently modified deals” API as the last\_updated field is not updated when an association is changed. How best do I get the data out without having to do a full re-sync every day???

Regards,

Wian
