+# Deprecations
+
+The following Parse Server options and APIs are deprecated and will change in future versions. The "Deprecation" version indicates from when an item has been deprecated with runtime warnings. The "End-of-Life" version indicates when the deprecation period has ended and the breaking change came into effect. In rare cases, deprecations may be revoked without any breaking change coming into effect.
+
+| Type | Item | Deprecation | End-of-Life | Details |
+|--------|----------------|-------------|-------------|-----------------------------------------|
+| Option | `directAccess` | `5.0.0` | tbd | Default changes from `false` to `true`. |

# Live Query
Live queries are meant to be used in real-time reactive applications, where just using the traditional query paradigm could cause several problems, like increased response time and high network and server usage. Live queries should be used in cases where you need to continuously update a page with fresh data coming from the database, which often happens in (but is not limited to) online games, messaging clients and shared to-do lists.
