# Public API change: Deprecating Call Action Items in the extensive endpoint

As part of our ongoing commitment to providing you with the most effective and advanced AI-driven insights, we are deprecating calls.content.pointsOfInterest.actionItems from the /extensive endpoint in our public API and transitioning to **Next Steps**.

This deprecation will take effect on January 23, 2025.

### What the Next Steps model provides

**Next Steps** is a newer, more powerful model that provides richer and more relevant recommendations. It is a key feature in our Highlights product, and offers a more advanced approach to action item identification.

The **Next Steps** model provides:

- **Enhanced accuracy:** Trained on a larger and more diverse dataset for better detection of actionable insights.
- **Increased context awareness:** Captures a broader range of actions and recommendations.
- **Seamless integration:** Accessible via our Highlights API, ensuring a smooth transition with

#### Remove pointOfInterest from your code

- **The** contentSelector.exposedFields.pointOfInterest in the request object has been removed.
- **The** content.pointsOfInterest has been removed from the response object.

Any code refering to these fields should be replaced with the highlights fields.

#### Replace with Next Steps

To get next steps, change your code to do the following:

- In the request, set contentSelector.exposedFields.highlights to "true".
- The next steps are returned in the response under content.highlights.
