This section lists deprecated behavior in Ory Kratos. Check this section regularly to avoid relying on deprecated functionality.


## Who does this apply to?

Users of the Ory Network, Ory Kratos (open source) and the OEL (Ory Enterprise License) are affected by this section.

## How to use this section

Each entry in this section provides information about the deprecated feature, including:

- A brief description of the feature and its purpose.
- The reason for deprecation, if available.
- The version in which the feature was deprecated.
- Any recommended alternatives or migration paths, if applicable.

If you're using an Ory Network project, your configuration will not change, unless you have explicitly disabled the deprecated
feature via a project level feature flag. To check which flags are currently enabled, go to

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

Fix minor grammar: “project level” → “project-level”.

Hyphenate “project-level” for consistent compound-adjective formatting.

In `@docs/kratos/deprecations/index.mdx` around lines 23 - 25, Replace the
unhyphenated compound adjective "project level" with the hyphenated form
"project-level" in the sentence that references the ConsoleLink component
(ConsoleLink route="project.settings.advanced") so the phrase reads "...unless
you have explicitly disabled the deprecated feature via a project-level feature
flag." This ensures consistent compound-adjective formatting across the
deprecations page.


If you're self-hosting Ory Kratos (either through open source or the OEL), you should review your configuration and codebase to
identify any usage of deprecated features before upgrading to a new version. This will help you avoid any potential issues that
may arise from the removal of deprecated features in future releases.

## Stay informed

Subscribe to the [Ory Changelog](https://changelog.ory.com) to receive updates on new releases, including information about
deprecated features and their removal timelines. Additionally, consider joining the Ory community on Slack or GitHub to stay
engaged with other users and developers, and to get support for any questions or issues related to deprecated features.

## Impacted functionality

### Admin session extension API (`faster_session_extend`)

- Who is impacted by this change?

This improvement may impact users who are using the `/admin/sessions/{id}/extend` endpoint ([`extendSession`](../reference/api#tag/identity/operation/extendSession) SDK operation) to
extend their users' sessions. The new implementation may result in faster response times and improved performance when extending
sessions.

- Why was this change made?

The change was made to improve the performance and efficiency of the session extension process. By decoupling the session
extension from the retrieval of the updated session information, we can reduce the processing time and resource usage for
extending sessions, especially in scenarios with high traffic or large session data.

- How to adapt to this change?

If your application is using the updated session returned by the `/admin/sessions/{id}/extend` endpoint after the session
extension, you will need to update your implementation to retrieve the updated session information separately, using the
`/admin/sessions/{id}` endpoint ([`getSession`](../reference/api#tag/identity/operation/getSession) SDK operation) after the session extension.

After you reviewed your usage of this API, follow the instructions below based on your deployment type to ensure that you are
benefiting from the improved session extension process.

<Tabs>
<TabItem value="network" label="Ory Network">
Go to <ConsoleLink route="project.settings.advanced" hash="kratos_feature_flags_faster_session_extend" /> and enable the
"Faster session extension" feature flag to benefit from this improvement.
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="self-hosted" label="Self-hosted (OSS or OEL)">
Starting with [Ory Kratos v1.3.0](https://github.com/ory/kratos/releases/tag/v1.3.0), the faster session extension process is
enabled by default. If you need to disable this feature for any reason, you can set the `feature_flags.faster_session_extend`
configuration option to `false` in your Kratos configuration file.

This entry is framed as an "improvement" and focuses on "benefiting" from it, but the page is about deprecated behavior. It would be clearer to explicitly state what behavior is deprecated (e.g., relying on the extend endpoint returning the updated session) and, if known, the removal/default-change timeline so readers understand why they need to adapt.

session data.

- How to adapt to this change?
If your application uses the updated session returned by the `/admin/sessions/{id}/extend` endpoint, update your implementation
to retrieve the updated session separately after extending it by calling `/admin/sessions/{id}`
([`getSession`](../reference/api#tag/identity/operation/getSession) SDK operation).

is enabled by default. If your code still relies on `/admin/sessions/{id}/extend` returning the updated session, update it
to call `getSession` separately, or temporarily set `feature_flags.faster_session_extend` to `false` in your Kratos
configuration file.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

Normalize and encode the fragment before appending it.

Passing hash through verbatim makes links brittle: hash="#section" renders ##section, and spaces/special characters are not encoded. Normalizing the leading # and encoding the fragment avoids malformed console links.

Suggested fix 
   const renderedRoute =
     "https://console.ory.sh" +
     resolvedRoute.replace("[project]", "current") +
-    (hash ? `#${hash}` : "")
+    (hash ? `#${encodeURIComponent(hash.replace(/^#/, ""))}` : "")

builder currently appends the fragment verbatim causing double hashes and
unencoded characters; update the fragment handling where the URL is constructed
(using resolvedRoute and the hash variable) to first normalize by stripping any
leading '#' from hash, then apply encodeURIComponent to the normalized fragment,
and finally append it only if non-empty as `#${encodedFragment}` so spaces and
special characters are encoded and you never produce `##...`.

hash is appended as #${hash} without any normalization/encoding. If a caller passes a value that already starts with # (or contains spaces/special chars), the resulting URL will be malformed. Consider stripping a leading # and applying encodeURIComponent to the fragment before concatenation.
