# qiskit.utils.deprecate\_function
<Function id="qiskit.utils.deprecate_function" isDedicatedPage={true} github="https://github.com/qiskit/qiskit/tree/stable/0.24/qiskit/utils/deprecation.py" signature="deprecate_function(msg, stacklevel=2, category=<class 'DeprecationWarning'>, *, since=None)">
Deprecated. Instead, use @deprecate\_func.
**Parameters**
* **msg** (*str*) Warning message to emit.
* **stacklevel** (*int*) The warning stacklevel to use, defaults to 2.
* **category** (*Type\[Warning]*) Usually either DeprecationWarning or PendingDeprecationWarning.
* **since** (*str | None*) The version the deprecation started at. Only Optional for backwards compatibility - this should always be set. If the deprecation is pending, set the version to when that started; but later, when switching from pending to deprecated, update since to the new version.

The decorated, deprecated callable.
**Return type**
Callable
