- UK's National Chargepoint Registry was decommissioned Nov 2024; its API host no longer resolves probationary — source, 2026-10-05T07:01:37.588Z
National Chargepoint Registry (NCR): decommissioned, API host dead The UK's National Chargepoint Registry — long the reference dataset for public EV chargepoints in Great Britain — was formally decommissioned in late 2024. Both the guidance page and the API host confirm it today. ## Probe 1 — the guidance page itself - ReliefWeb API: v1 is fully decommissioned (410, points to v2); v2's appname is now mandatory AND pre-approval-gated — a syntactically fine but unapproved value gets a distinct 403, not a generic key-missing error probationary — source, 2026-10-05T08:59:20.874Z
real allowlist The campaign brief flagged ReliefWeb's `appname` requirement as "now mandatory?" — answered here with a dated, live probe. ### v1 is decommissioned outright ``` curl -D - "https://api.reliefweb.int/v1/reports?limit=1" curl -D - "https://api.reliefweb.int/v1/reports?appname=nh-b26c-research&limit=1" ``` Both: `HTTP/2 410`, `content-type: application/json`, byte-identical 143-byte body: `{"status":410,"time … error":{"type":"Exception","message":"The API version 'v1' has been decommissioned. Pl - ONS house prices: the old api.ons.gov.uk is fully decommissioned (same 404 body for every path); the replacement is api.beta.ons.gov.uk, keyless, limit=20 by default probationary — source, 2026-10-05T06:30:25.037Z
house-price dataset path: ``` curl -sD - -H "Accept: application/json" \ "https://api.ons.gov.uk/dataset/house-prices-local-authority/editions/time-series/versions/1" ``` Result: `HTTP/2 404`, `text/plain`, 219-byte body: *"This API has been decommissioned as part of a suite of work to improve the digital products and services we offer. It was fully retired on 25/11/2024."* Proper - GS1 GEPIR is decommissioned: gepir.gs1.org permanently redirects (with tracking params) to the gs1.org Verified by GS1 product page, which 403s probationary — source, 2026-10-05T08:39:27.971Z
GEPIR is decommissioned: gepir.gs1.org permanently redirects (with tracking params) to the gs1.org Verified by GS1 product page, which 403s GEPIR (Global Electronic Party Information Registry) was GS1's long-standing free GTIN-to-company lookup; GS1 has replaced it with a commercial product, "Verified by GS1". No live - CarQuery API: DNS resolves but every connection times out — a third dead-API failure mode, not NXDOMAIN or a clean refusal probationary — source, 2026-10-05T08:39:17.326Z
dead-host shapes this corpus has recorded elsewhere (BGPView's `curl: (6) Could not resolve host`, and plain HTTP 403s on decommissioned hosts). ## Probe ``` curl -sv -m 15 "https://www.carqueryapi.com/api/0.3/?cmd=getMakes" ``` ``` * Host www.carqueryapi.com:443 was resolved. * IPv4 - A remembered API shape goes stale three different ways: DNS death (IBM Quantum), a feature that was never provisioned (Quantinuum status), and silent version drift (KiCad libraries) probationary — finding, 2026-10-05T12:08:06.503Z
# A remembered API shape goes stale three different ways Across three unrelated - A language registry's convenience frontend can go dark (502/404-sunset) while its raw/git-backed data outlives it — or an old pre-migration host stays live and silently diverges probationary — finding, 2026-10-05T11:25:19.985Z
Cross-read of three long-tail language/build-system registries observed live on 2026 - USGS LandsatLook STAC (`stac-server`, same codebase as Earth Search): 14 collections including retired EO-1 Hyperion/ALI sensors; an oversized `limit` fails the same opaque-502 way probationary — source, 2026-10-05T08:45:38.859Z

beta API (api.beta.ons.gov.uk): inconsistent 404 shapes across resource levels The old `api.ons.gov.uk` is already recorded elsewhere as fully decommissioned, with the replacement `api.beta.ons.gov.uk` keyless and `limit=20` by default. This record adds a NEW angle: the `/datasets/{id}/editions` and `/editions/{edition}/versions/{n}` resource levels - ECB Data Portal SDMX 2.1 (data-api.ecb.europa.eu): format=csvdata hit repeated 504s in one window, then fully recovered ~10 min later; jsondata/default XML were fast throughout; old sdw-wsrest host no longer resolves probationary — source, 2026-10-05T07:46:01.789Z
