 This document shows you some examples of the different options that are
 available to generate structured outputs.
 
+!!! warning
+    If you are still using the following deprecated API fields, please update your code to use `structured_outputs` as demonstrated in the rest of this document:
+
+    - `guided_json` -> `{"structured_outputs": {"json": ...}}` or `StructuredOutputsParams(json=...)`
+    - `guided_regex` -> `{"structured_outputs": {"regex": ...}}` or `StructuredOutputsParams(regex=...)`
+    - `guided_choice` -> `{"structured_outputs": {"choice": ...}}` or `StructuredOutputsParams(choice=...)`
+    - `guided_grammar` -> `{"structured_outputs": {"grammar": ...}}` or `StructuredOutputsParams(grammar=...)`
+    - `guided_whitespace_pattern` -> `{"structured_outputs": {"whitespace_pattern": ...}}` or `StructuredOutputsParams(whitespace_pattern=...)`
+    - `structural_tag` -> `{"structured_outputs": {"structural_tag": ...}}` or `StructuredOutputsParams(structural_tag=...)`
+    - `guided_decoding_backend` -> Remove this field from your request
+
 ## Online Serving (OpenAI API)
 
 You can generate structured outputs using the OpenAI's [Completions](https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/completions) and [Chat](https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/chat) API.
