The infra team can help with updating API docs once we know what should happen to them, such as removing the link entirely vs using a new link. We should only use a new link if it's actually a valid replacement for the original content.

• https://github.com/Qiskit/ibm-quantum-schemas/blob/main/schemas/backend_configuration_schema.json

• Found a link in the API docs. I opened an issue to update it.

• The only other occurrence is being updated in Consolidate two similar pages (get-qpu-information and qpu-information) #4313

• Will we still get broken link errors from old versions of the API docs?

• https://github.com/Qiskit/ibm-quantum-schemas/blob/main/schemas/backend_properties_schema.json

• The only links are in API docs. I opened an issue to update it.

• Link to https://github.com/Qiskit/ibm-quantum-schemas/blob/main/schemas/backend_status_schema.json will be fixed in Consolidate two similar pages (get-qpu-information and qpu-information) #4313

• Links to "https://auth.quantum-computing.ibm.com/api", are only in the API. Opened an issue.

• Links to auth.quantum.ibm.com/api are only in the API. Opened an issue.

• Links to quantum-computing.cloud.ibm.com are only in the API. Opened an issue.

Fixed all others.

The decision is to leave the broken links in old versions of API docs; adding the links to a new section in the ignore.ts file. Ping appropriate infra team members with instructions to update the current API docs and they will perform their magic.
