Previous state

Before the August lifecycle boundary, v202508 remains available in its deprecated period and v202511 remains an active non-deprecated SOAP API version.

Current state

At the last weekday of August 2026, v202508 is no longer available and v202511 becomes deprecated; v202511 remains callable during its warning period until the last weekday of November 2026.

Who needs to care

Google Ad Manager SOAP API integrations still calling v202508 or using v202511 without a migration plan to a newer supported version.

What to do

Move v202508 integrations to a supported version before 31 August, inventory v202511 usage, and plan the next upgrade before v202511's November sunset.

What the source does not prove

Google defines deprecation as advance warning and sunset as the point when a version is no longer available. v202508 sunset and v202511 deprecation happen at the same August boundary but are not equivalent lifecycle states.
