Summary

Marks GET /api/contentstore/v1/home as deprecated: true in the published CMS schema by adding it to SUPERSEDED_PATHS in cms/lib/spectacular.py. The conforming replacement (GET /api/authoring/v3/home/) already exists and is tagged for SDK generation (@extend_schema(tags=["openedx-platform-sdk"])).

No view, serializer, or URL file is changed. The v1 endpoint remains live and its contract is unchanged. Callers who have not yet migrated are unaffected at runtime; they will see the deprecated: true flag in schema tooling.

Why in-place, not a new version: a conforming HomeViewSet already exists at /api/authoring/v3/home/. Adding deprecated: true to the schema of the superseded endpoint is a schema-only change and requires no new version directory under ADR 0037.

ADRs applied

Backward compatibility

• Versions gate: git diff --name-only origin/master — cms/djangoapps/contentstore/rest_api/v{0..4}/ absent from diff.
• Legacy tests unmodified: cms/djangoapps/contentstore/rest_api/v1/views/tests/test_home.py — 4 HomePageViewTest methods unchanged.
• Schema change: one addition only — deprecated: true on GET /api/contentstore/v1/home. No path removed, no response shape changed.
• Runtime behaviour: unchanged. SUPERSEDED_PATHS is consumed only by the drf-spectacular post-processing hook; no effect on routing or response handling.

Deprecations

GET /api/contentstore/v1/home is superseded by GET /api/authoring/v3/home/ and marked deprecated: true in the published CMS schema. The superseded view is unchanged: no response header and no deprecation notices in code.

Note on replacement availability: /api/authoring/v3/home/ is in INTERNAL_BFF_PATH_PREFIXES (cms/lib/spectacular.py:41) and is marked x-internal in the schema. Schema generators that skip x-internal operations will not include it. Callers that are not BFF consumers and whose tooling skips x-internal operations should coordinate with the team on an external-facing replacement; progress is tracked under #39068.

Tracked on the FC-0118 umbrella DEPR ticket #39128, which removes it one named release after the release this ships in.

Authorization

No permission mapping changed. E1 keeps permission_classes = (IsAuthenticated,).

Sequencing

This PR and #39238 both write to cms/lib/spectacular.py. #39238 appends entries to SUPERSEDED_PATHS and its test test_the_legacy_library_lists_are_marked_and_their_neighbours_are_not lists /api/contentstore/v1/home as a neighbour expected to remain unmarked. With both merged, that test will fail. Whichever lands second must drop the /api/contentstore/v1/home neighbour guard from #39238's test and merge the two SUPERSEDED_PATHS additions. cc #39238.

Follow-ups

• org param no-op bug: both v1 and v3 document an org query parameter that has no effect — get_home_context never reads it (v3/views/home.py:92). v1 is frozen; the v3 fix belongs on the replacement, not on the DEPR removal. Tracked separately.
• ADR 0030 fix for replacement: GET /api/authoring/v3/home/ has the same write-on-GET as v1; fix tracked under [API] Home Page Data #39068.
• External MFE consumers: MFE teams receive the DEPR notice through umbrella [DEPR]: Contentstore and enrollment API versions superseded by FC-0118 #39128 and the schema flag.

Thanks, the change itself is small and the exact-path approach is right. Most of my comments are about whether /api/authoring/v3/home/ is the standardized replacement the description says it is, and about how this lands next to #39238.

ADR 0030 is marked n/a, but the replacement writes on GET. The description says "survey confirms no domain writes, signals, or events within three frames". Both v1 HomePageView.get and v3 HomeViewSet.list call get_home_context → _get_course_creator_status. On a site with ENABLE_CREATOR_GROUP, that calls add_user_with_status_unrequested for a non-staff user without a record (cms/djangoapps/contentstore/views/course.py:2144), inserting a CourseCreator row and sending post_save. #39238 records the same write and links it to #39068. So v3 isn't "fully standardized": it has the same ADR 0030 violation as the endpoint being deprecated. I'd rule 0030 as not met for the replacement, and either note that the fix is tracked under #39068 or hold the deprecation until it is.

The replacement is published as x-internal. /api/authoring/v3/home/ is in INTERNAL_BFF_PATH_PREFIXES (cms/lib/spectacular.py:41), so the schema flags it as a BFF surface, not a stable contract. The openedx-platform-sdk tag is there, but generators that skip x-internal drop the operation. That weakens "SDK consumers have a generated replacement". Could the Deprecations section tell callers that the replacement is internal, or say what external callers should use instead?

ADR 0037 is ticked as met, but these are missing:

• There's no entry on #39128 for this path; none of its comments mention v1/home. The other areas post one.
• The ADR asks for a migration guide. There's none here, even though v3 adds ?fields= and a different authentication set (no Bearer).
• The docstring marker is left out, which other FC-0118 PRs record as a deviation. I'd mark the box partial and record it the same way.
• The quote "more ADRs applied is not a breaking change" isn't in ADR 0037. It comes from the apply-api-adrs skill's pitfalls notes, so it shouldn't be cited as ADR text.

Smaller description points:

• OEP-69 is shown as [ ] but described as "met".
• The gate report lists the tests as "Expected green in CI", and the versions and schema gates as a git diff --name-only. It would help to say plainly that they weren't run, or to run them.
• Follow-ups say v1's org parameter is a no-op whose fix "belongs in the DEPR ticket's removal". v3 HomeViewSet.list documents the same no-op parameter (v3/views/home.py:92, "Filter by course org"; get_home_context never reads it), so the fix belongs on the replacement, not on the removal of v1.

[Faraz32123]

Thanks for the detailed review — all points addressed:

• ADR 0030: Updated to 'not met for replacement' and noted the write-on-GET is tracked under [API] Home Page Data #39068.
• x-internal: Added a note in the Deprecations section about the BFF surface and what external callers should do.
• ADR 0037: Changed to partial, updated test reference, recorded both deviations, removed the incorrect citation.
• OEP-69: Fixed the checkbox — it was marked met in the text but unchecked.
• Gate report: Replaced 'Expected green in CI' with 'Not run locally; CI verifies'.
• Tests: Replaced the redundant test with a schema-gen test and fixed the misleading xblock one (pushed in a follow-up commit).
