Available Releases
Releases are listed by version number rather than in date order. For this reason, a recent release may be listed after earlier releases, if the version number is lower. Except when otherwise noted in the information for a specific release, each release includes all of the features and corrections that were introduced for the applicable operating system at earlier dates, regardless of the version numbering.
The operating systems available for use with each component release are listed in the table at a high level only. For more detailed information about the supported operating environments, including requirements, supported versions, and any conditions or limitations, see the eServices page in the Genesys Supported Operating Environment Reference Guide.

Additional Information
Upgrading from a previous Web API Server
While it is recommended you do a new install, if you wish to upgrade an existing Web API Server, the following instructions will assist you: Java classes are located in the jsp-helper.jar, which will need to be added to WEB-INF/lib of the WebAPI project. The jsp-helper.jar is located in the /release directory. In the file ItxSubmit.jsp there is one change at line 162:
kvcAppEndPoints = LoadBalancer.getOwnApp().getOptions().getList("endpoints:" + strTenantID);
That line should be changed to the following:
kvcAppEndPoints = LoadBalancer.getConfigServerOptions().getList("endpoints:" + strTenantID);
To test the application, ensure the correct tenant name is in the constants.jsp file at line 17. Existing users will already have this set. In the file WebAPI813/SimpleSamples813/EmailWithAttachment/Email.jsp, delete the following from line 15:
<%@ page import="com.genesyslab.webapi.utils.base64.base64" %>
