Really need to know when we've got to stop using the create api

Edis Thanks for the note. We've moved the retirement of the legacy Paper API to Q2 of 2021. We'll update the migration guide again if there are any further changes.

Greg-DB Thanks for the updates!
Is the migration still planning to finish this quarter (Q2 of 2021) ?
Thanks!
