 > [!IMPORTANT]
-> Please note that this repository is still in alpha stage. For now, the primary API is still defined in the [metal-api](https://github.com/metal-stack/metal-api) project. We will make a special announcement when this repository becomes GA.
+> Clients from the metal-stack infrastructure have not fully migrated to the new API yet and might still communicate with the old [metal-api](https://github.com/metal-stack/metal-api). It could be that the information you look for is not contained in this repo.
 
 This is the V2 API of [metal-stack.io](https://metal-stack.io) to implement [MEP-4](https://metal-stack.io/docs/MEP-4-multi-tenancy-for-the-metal-api).
