+= End of beta phase
+
+The beta phase of GraphQL for Neo4j AuraDB will end on the 18th of April 2025.
+To prevent data loss and wrap up your beta experience we suggest you take the following steps:
+
+* Backup GraphQL Data API configuration
+* Remove the GraphQL Data API
+* Provide feedback 
+
+You are not required to take action.
+However, any running GraphQL Data API will be terminated after the 18th of April, resulting in the loss of its configuration information including type definitions.
+
+
+== Backup the GraphQL Data API configuration
+
+Backing up your GraphQL Data API configuration makes re-use much quicker if you decide to use this feature once it is released.
+If you want to run your own GraphQL service instead, the backup might still be useful since it includes the type definitions which can be used for that purpose.
+
+There are two ways to perform a backup:
+
+* Manually copy them one by one from the Aura Console
+* Using the Aura CLI to obtain everything in a single operation
+
+
+=== Console
+
+If you want to retain only parts of the configuration, this is a quick method to do so.
+If you are intent on backing up all of the configuration, use the xref:#_aura_cli[] instead.
+
+1. On Aura Console, select **Data API** from the left side navigation.
++
+image::aura-graphql/console_data_api_sidebar.png[]
++
+2. The table shows your GraphQL Data APIs. Use the three dots on the row with the GraphQL Data API that you wish to backup and select **Edit**.
++
+image::aura-graphql/console_data_api_edit_menu.png[]
++
+3. Expand each of the sections and then make a note of the setting or copy as necessary.
++
+image::aura-graphql/console_data_api_edit.png[]
+
+
+=== Aura CLI
+
+This section assumes that you have configured the Aura CLI.
+If you have not, follow the guidance provided in  xref:aura-graphql/prerequisites.adoc#_install_and_configure_the_aura_cli[].
+
+
+1. Look up the Aura instance ID that the GraphQL API is being used with.
++
+[source, bash, indent=0]
+----
+aura-cli instance list --output table
+----
++
+
+2. From the displayed table, make a note of relevant Aura ID. Use this ID to obtain the ID of the GraphQL API whose configuration you want to back up.
++
+[source, bash, indent=0]
+----
+aura-cli data-api graphql list --instance-id YOUR_AURA_INSTANCE_ID --output table
+----
++
+
+3. Finally, obtain the configuration of the GraphQL API itself in JSON format.
++
+[source, bash, indent=0]
+----
+aura-cli data-api graphql get  YOUR_GRAPHQL_DATA_API_ID  --instance-id YOUR_AURA_INSTANCE_ID 
+----
++
+4. Save the output for future use.
+
+[NOTE]
+====
+Type definitions are stored using Base64 encoding.
+Decode them to plain text before using with other systems.
+====  
+
+
+== Removing the GraphQL Data API
+
+Remove the GraphQL Data API either via Aura Console or with the Aura CLI.
+
+[WARNING]
+====
+Once the GraphQL Data API has been deleted, it cannot be recovered.  
+====
+
+
+=== Console
+
+1. In Aura Console, select **Data API** from the left side navigation.
++
+image::aura-graphql/console_data_api_sidebar.png[]
++
+2. The table contains your GraphQL Data APIs. Use the three dots on the row with the GraphQL Data API that you wish to remove and select **Delete**. 
++
+image::aura-graphql/console_data_api_delete_menu.png[]
++
+3. Type in the name of your GraphQL API and confirm with **Delete**.

+
+
+=== Aura CLI 
+
+This section assumes that you have configured the Aura CLI.
+If you have not, follow the guidance provided in  xref:aura-graphql/prerequisites.adoc#_install_and_configure_the_aura_cli[].
+
+1. Locate the Aura instance ID that the GraphQL API is being used with.
++
+[source, bash, indent=0]
+----
+aura-cli instance list --output table
+----
++
+2. From the displayed table, make a note of the relevant Aura ID. Use the ID to obtain the ID of the GraphQL API whose configuration you want to back up.
++
+[source, bash, indent=0]
+----
+aura-cli data-api graphql list --instance-id YOUR_AURA_INSTANCE_ID --output table
+----
++
+3. Delete the GraphQL API.  
++
+[WARNING]
+====
+The Aura CLI does not ask for confirmation and processes the command immediately.  
+====
++
+[source, bash, indent=0]
+----
+aura-cli data-api graphql delete YOUR_GRAPHQL_DATA_API_ID  --instance-id YOUR_AURA_INSTANCE_ID --output table
+----
+
+
+== Provide feedback
