- title: "GraphQL API Runner will not accept `status` filter values of `active` or `paused`" announcement_milestone: "14.8" # The milestone when this feature was first announced as deprecated. removal_milestone: "16.0" breaking_change: true body: | # Do not modify this line, instead modify the lines below. The GitLab Runner GraphQL endpoints will stop accepting `paused` or `active` as a status value in GitLab 16.0. A runner's status will only relate to runner contact status, such as: `online`, `offline`. Status values `paused` or `active` will no longer be accepted and will be replaced by the `paused` query parameter. When checking for paused runners, API users are advised to specify `paused: true` as the query parameter. When checking for active runners, specify `paused: false`. The REST API endpoints will follow in the same direction in a future REST v5 API, however the new `paused` status value can be used in place of `active` since GitLab 14.8. stage: Verify tiers: [Core, Premium, Ultimate] issue_url: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/351109 documentation_url: https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/api/graphql/reference/#queryrunners
