| **The `@defer` directive is currently [experimental](https://www.apollographql.com/docs/resources/product-launch-stages/#experimental-features) in Apollo Kotlin.** If you have feedback on it, please let us know via [GitHub issues](https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-kotlin/issues/new?assignees=&labels=Type%3A+Bug&template=bug_report.md) or in the [Kotlin Slack community](https://slack.kotl.in/). | ||
| The incremental delivery format used by `@defer` has not yet been standardized. There have been multiple proposals and Apollo Kotlin only supports [the format implemented by Apollo Router](https://www.apollographql.com/docs/graphos/routing/operations/defer#specification-status). |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
I think this is true for the version of Apollo Kotlin that these docs refer to. I know you're working on supporting the new response format but am unsure whether that will be released against this major version of Apollo Kotlin.
