# Deprecation of `productDuplicateAsync` and introduction of `productDuplicateAsyncV2` and `productDuplicateJob`

In the Admin API `2023-07` Release, we are deprecating the `productDuplicateAsync` mutation and introducing the `productDuplicateAsyncV2` mutation and the `productDuplicateJob` query.

The new mutation brings several improvements over `productDuplicateAsync`, enhancing the overall user experience and performance of the endpoint.

* [productDuplicateAsync](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/productDuplicateAsync) has been deprecated.
* [productDuplicateAsyncV2](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/productDuplicateAsyncV2) has been introduced.
* [productDuplicateJob](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/queries/productDuplicateJob) query has been introduced to fetch the status of an existing product duplication job.

Learn more about these changes at [productDuplicateAsyncV2](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/productDuplicateAsyncV2) and [productDuplicateJob](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/queries/productDuplicateJob).
