  title: API Evangelist enhancements for FAA Aeronautic Product Release API (APRA)
  version: 1.0.0
extends: openapi/us-dot-faa-aeronautic-product-release-api-openapi.yml

    update:
      x-apievangelist-provider: us-dot
      x-apievangelist-api: us-dot:faa-aeronautic-product-release-api
      x-apievangelist-verified: '2026-07-28'
      x-apievangelist-access: >-
        Verified anonymously with HTTP 200 on 2026-07-28 against /nfdc/nasr/info and
        /dtpp/info. No API key required. Responses are XML productSet documents; the
        /chart operations return download URLs, not the ZIP bytes.
      x-apievangelist-pattern: >-
        Every product follows the same pair: /info returns edition metadata (current and
        next edition dates), /chart returns the download link for an edition. Always call
        /info first — requesting a /chart for an unreleased edition is a 404.
      x-apievangelist-release-cadence: >-
        28-day AIRAC cycle for NASR, dTPP and CIFP; 56-day for digital enroute and
        oceanic charts; daily for the Digital Obstacle File.

    update:
      x-apievangelist-deprecation: >-
        Retired product. The FAA signals retirement ONLY through the 404 response
        description — there is no Sunset header, no Deprecation header and no policy
        page. This operation and /ders/info are the department's only machine-readable
        deprecation signal.
      x-apievangelist-replacement: null
  - target: $.paths['/ders/info'].get
    update:
      x-apievangelist-deprecation: >-
        Retired product. See /ders/chart. deprecated:true is correctly set in the source
        spec.
  - target: $.paths['/nfdc/nasr/info'].get
    update:
      x-apievangelist-note: >-
        The NASR 28-day subscription is the single highest-value product on this API —
        the national airspace fixed data set (airports, navaids, airways, fixes). Poll
        this operation to learn the next edition date, then fetch /nfdc/nasr/chart.
