Deprecation of Offline Conversions API
Applies to v17.0+.
Starting with Graph API v17.0, the Offline Conversions API will no longer support offline events. Graph API v16.0 is the last version that supports offline events. We anticipate that the Offline Conversions API will be discontinued in the third quarter of 2024.
In February 2023, we announced that the Conversions API now fully supports offline events. We recommend that advertisers use the Conversions API for new integrations. We recommend that advertisers with Offline Conversions API integrations convert their integration into a Conversions API integration before the third quarter of 2024 and not update their Offline Conversions API until they have successfully done so.
