      API going forward, replacing the older Config API.

      and destinations, create or delete destinations, and manage tracking plans. As of early 2024, Segment
      has stopped issuing new Config API tokens and recommends migrating to the Public API for access
      to the latest features. The Config API remains functional for existing users but is no longer actively
      developed.

      the api.segment.io domain. This API is particularly suited for tracking email opens, ad impressions,
      and other contexts where embedding a tracking pixel is the only viable data collection method.
