Orders API v0 removal March 2027: migration guide and scanner checklist
Orders API v0 removal March 2027 explains what replaces Orders API v0 operations, the removal date, the migration risks to validate, and how API Migration Guard detects the pattern.
- Target keyword: Orders API v0 removal March 2027
- Removed: Orders API v0 operations
- Replacement: Orders API v2026-01-01
- Removal date: March 27, 2027
TL;DR
| Deprecated item | Removal date | Replacement | Migration risk | Scanner detection |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Orders API v0 operations | March 27, 2027 | Orders API v2026-01-01 | March 2027 removal creates a hard deadline for buyer, recipient, item and pagination parity. | AMZ-ORD-OPERATION-001 |
Official status
Amazon documentation lists Orders API v0 operations as in-scope for this migration. Use the official source before code freeze because deadlines and replacement details can change.

Production Orders validation plan
Orders migrations need same-order parity checks because the v2026 model consolidates data that v0 teams often fetched through separate buyer, address and item calls. Treat each finding as a prompt to validate a captured order before code freeze.
| Validation area | Production proof to collect |
|---|---|
| includedData | Record which paths require BUYER, RECIPIENT and ITEMS and confirm role approval for each marketplace. |
| Payload parity | Compare one shipped, one unshipped and one cancelled order against the legacy consumer contract. |
| Pagination | Exercise paginationToken with the original search filters and confirm retry behavior for expired tokens. |
| Downstream jobs | Re-run tax, fulfillment, notification and support workflows that consume order fields. |
Removed resource and replacement
| Old resource | Replacement | Deadline | Validation outcome |
|---|---|---|---|
| Orders API v0 operations | Orders API v2026-01-01 | March 27, 2027 | March 2027 removal creates a hard deadline for buyer, recipient, item and pagination parity. |
What breaks
| Area | Breakage |
|---|---|
| Code pattern | Legacy Orders v0 call or endpoint usage for Orders API v0 operations. |
| Payload or schema | v2026 responses use changed field names, includedData sections and different enum semantics. |
| Permission or data access | Buyer and recipient PII require approved roles and includedData, not an old RDT workflow. |
| Pagination, status or field mapping | NextToken becomes paginationToken and can expire after 24 hours; status and fulfillment values need parity checks. |
Before/after example
The example is intentionally small so the migration shape is visible in a code review.
Before:
getOrders(); getOrderBuyerInfo(); getOrderAddress();
After:
searchOrders(); getOrder({ includedData: ['BUYER', 'RECIPIENT'] });Scanner detection
| Rule ID | Severity | Evidence pattern | False positive condition | Validation step |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| AMZ-ORD-OPERATION-001 | BLOCKER or HIGH depending on evidence type | Orders API v0 operations | Documentation, comments, generated clients or test fixtures can require manual review. | Confirm the code path is production runtime, not only docs, comments or generated vendor output. |
Migration checklist
- Confirm the code path is production runtime, not only docs, comments or generated vendor output.
- Replace the legacy operation with the v2026 operation and required includedData.
- Compare same-order v0 and v2026 payloads in the Orders Payload Parity Validator.
- Re-scan and confirm Orders rule IDs are fixed or explicitly accepted as manual risk.
Common mistakes
- Treating includedData as a search filter instead of response data selection.
- Assuming RDT migration alone restores buyer or recipient fields.
- Stopping pagination or mapping enums without comparing representative order payloads.
