Java 8 has reached end of support
and will be
deprecated
on January 31, 2026. After deprecation, you won't be able to deploy Java 8
applications, even if your organization previously used an organization policy to
re-enable deployments of legacy runtimes. Your existing Java
8 applications will continue to run and receive traffic after their
deprecation date. We recommend that
you
migrate to the latest supported version of Java.

Cloud Client Libraries for Java
Request Headers and Responses
The APIs in this section are still supported, but are no longer recommended.
Instead, use the Cloud client libraries.
Apps that use these superseded APIs will need to migrate to the Cloud client
libraries and other services before upgrading to newer Google Cloud runtimes
or other environments that support Java.
