# Deprecation: #84637 - TemplateService->linkData() functionality moved in PageLinkBuilder

See [forge#84637](https://forge.typo3.org/issues/84637)

## Description

In the process of streamlining the link generation to pages in the Frontend, the master method
`TemplateService->linkData` and all functionality regarding resolving of the according Mount Point parameters
have been migrated into the TypoLink PageLinkBuilder class.

The following methods have been marked as deprecated:

-   `TYPO3\CMS\Core\TypoScript\TemplateService->linkData`
-   `TYPO3\CMS\Core\TypoScript\TemplateService->getFromMPmap`
-   `TYPO3\CMS\Core\TypoScript\TemplateService->initMPmap_create`

## Impact

Calling any of the methods above will trigger a PHP deprecation warning.

## Affected Installations

Any TYPO3 installations with third-party extensions calling the methods directly, extensions using the
existing hook `$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SC_OPTIONS']['t3lib/class.t3lib_tstemplate.php']['linkData-PostProc']`
will work the same way.

## Migration

Access the corresponding new methods within `PageLinkBuilder` instead of the TemplateService-related
methods, or use the existing hook to modify parameters for a URL.
