Internal API Migration | IntelliJ Platform Plugin SDK

Internal API Migration

This page lists commonly used API annotated with @ApiStatus.Internal or @IntellijInternalApi which indicates it is private API and must not be used outside of IntelliJ Platform itself:

Indicates that the annotated element (class, method, field, etc.) must not be considered as a public API. It's made visible to allow usages in other packages of the declaring library, but it must not be used outside of that library. Such elements may be renamed, changed, or removed in future versions.

Such violations are reported from Plugin Verifier and are highlighted in the IDE using a dedicated inspection.

Each entry is mapped to its corresponding Replacement, pointing to the recommended API.

The lists are not complete and will be updated continuously.

Check the corresponding code documentation when encountering any API not listed on this page. In some cases, such documentation might not be available inside the IDE for the current target platform version. Use Go to file to browse the latest version in the intellij-community GitHub repository instead.

Use the feedback form at the bottom of this page if you encounter missing or unclear information.
