Frequently Asked Questions on New Version Naming

Here are all the frequently asked questions regarding our new version naming update.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

  1. Why are we moving to a new version naming?
    The new year.release.patch format makes it easier to understand when a version was released and enables more frequent updates, giving customers greater flexibility.
  2. What happens with the Auto-Updater?
    The Auto-Updater will continue to function as it always has. Older versions will automatically update to the latest version within their track (insider or public).
    For example:
    Customers on Version 6.1 will auto-update to Version 25.1.x (previously known as Version 7.0).
  3. Will old version names change?
    No, we’re only applying the new naming format to future releases. Existing versions will retain their original names.
  4. What about customers who prefer annual updates?
    Updates remain optional. Customers can decide when to update based on their needs and the features they want to adopt. With more frequent releases, you’ll have added flexibility to choose updates that align with your schedule.
  5. Will there be any impact on compatibility with existing integrations or tools?

    No, the new version naming will not affect compatibility with your existing integrations or tools. Everything will work seamlessly as before.

  6. How can I check which version I’m currently using?

    You can check your current version the same way as before: simply go to the About section in DataSnipper Platform.

  7. Will there be notifications for updates?

    Yes! We’ll keep you informed by updating our changelog, sharing updates on our social media channels, and posting details on our website to ensure you’re always in the loop.
