Keep Open API in OC200 V5.15
Related to this post: Re:Omada Hardware Controller_V5.14 Pre-release (Released on Apr 16th, 2024) and this post Will OPENAPI function be removed in OC200?
TP-Link is removiing the Open-API function introduced last year:
Please keep the Open API also in the OC200, just like TP-Link changed its mind on removing it from the OC300 see message, see thread Will OPENAPI function be removed in OC200? mentioned above.
People are using it to monitor their environment via third party applications.

Hi @RBL
We will add more other features in 5.15, OC200 has limited hardware performance and cannot maintain so many features at the same time.
As stated in the notice, kindly stick with the current firmware version if the API is more important to you.

@Vincent-TP Ok, so that leaves me with three questions:
1. Will TP-Link be providing security updates for the ones who don't want to lose OpenAPI?
2. Does TP-Link check with the community if the new features are wanted more then losing OpenAPI?
3. Which hardware controller will keep OpenAPI?
To give you an idea, there are a lot of home owners (and maybe even companies) who rely on the use of OpenAPI for their domotica or other systems.

TP-LINK is really really very strange. It seems they aim to be a serious vendor for SME networking, but they behave like an unresponsible no-name brand. Who else on the market will remove some features that are already avialble for a product suddenly? Have they realized how big trouble this will bring to their customers? And this is even not the first time they do such sh*t thing. Last time if I remember correct is the Speed Test feature. Shame on you!
