# `discountedUnitPrice` on `DraftOrderLineItem` Customer Account API deprecation

The [`discountedUnitPrice`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/customer/2026-04/objects/DraftOrderLineItem#field-DraftOrderLineItem.fields.discountedUnitPrice) field on the [`DraftOrderLineItem`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/customer/latest/objects/DraftOrderLineItem#top) object in the Customer Account API is now deprecated.

Use [`approximateDiscountedUnitPrice`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/customer/2026-07/objects/DraftOrderLineItem#field-DraftOrderLineItem.fields.approximateDiscountedUnitPrice) instead. This new field calculates the discounted total divided by the quantity, resulting in an approximate per-unit price reduction. Update your queries to use `approximateDiscountedUnitPrice`.
