How to refer to a specific version of Adobe Connect API Version?

Question

I found the following documentation for Adobe Connect web service API 8
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/connect/8.0/webservices/connect_8_webservices.pdf

The following link, lists the changes in API 9
https://helpx.adobe.com/adobe-connect/webservices/whats-new-connect-9-web.html

And following is the sample usage of API
$host/api/xml?action=principal-list&session=apac1breezra3ssd5h2mgth2mod5h2p22th2mgo

In the above API call we are not referring to any specific version of API. So how do I refer to a specific version of API(say 9.5) so that my application will not stop working suddenly when the web service or API is upgraded.

Appreciate any help.

Answer 1

The version mentioned in the API docs is the Adobe Connect Server version which the API is used. Therefore there is no option to select an API version.

So to decide which API version you need to use, you should know which server version you are running.

You can get your server version with the following command.

$host/version.txt

This an example output of the above URL (package value is the version one need to check):
