Specify the Management API version
To guarantee stable behavior of the Management API as new versions are released, each resource address in the Management API ncludes a version number. The examples in this section show the version as LATEST, which means to use the latest version of the API. However, you can also specify the version number to use a specific version of the API, using the format:
v#
Where # is the version number. For example, in the initial version of the API:
http://localhost:8002/manage/LATEST/databases
is the same as:
http://localhost:8002/manage/v2/databases
If you want to update your clients when you choose, use the explicit version number. If you want to update your clients to the most recent version of the Management API use LATEST.
Note
The version number is only updated when resource addresses and/or parameters have changed. It is not updated when resource addresses and/or parameters are added or removed.
