 * I was looking for a way to add markers automatically (and add them to layers)
   when the user fills out a form in the Formidable plugin. I thought the REST API
   would do it, but I note that the documentation says it is deprecated and calls
   to it do not seem to function. Is there a way to accomplish what I want?

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your feedback – the current REST API will actually not be discontinued
   but replaced with a more WordPress compatible API. This new REST API will likely
   be not compatible with the old one due to huge updates coming with the next pro
   release, so I would kindly suggest to wait a bit longer until Maps Marker Pro
   v4.0 is available.
 * best,
 * Robert

 * I am having the same trouble with the REST API not working, but I was under the
   impression that the API calls would work until version 4.0 is available. I thought
   by “deprecated” you all meant that it would no longer be supported and was slated
   for elimination upon introduction of 4.0. Am I wrong, or should the REST API 
   be functioning for me? (perhaps I am using the wrong syntax)

 * Hi,
 * the APIs available with v3.1 should be working respectively are we not aware 
   of any current issues. Nevertheless as mentioned before, if you plan to use one
   of our API and haven´t started the implementation yet, we suggest to wait until
   v4 is available, as there will be breaking changes.
 * best,
 * Robert
