API Versioning

The floLIVE Public API Base version is Version 2. All API URLs for Version 2 are treated as the default version and are not labeled. If an API call has been upgraded to a higher version, such as Version 3, the API interface is duly labeled.

Version Identification

All the API URLs start with //api/v#, where # is the version number. For example, /api/v2/<api_call>

For example, the title for an API Version 2, looks like this:

 

For an API of Version 3, the title looks like this:

Backward Compatibility

Older version APIs are backward compatible to new platform releases. This means that if an API has been upgraded to Version 3, you can still use Version 2. Likewise, if an API has been upgraded to Version 4, you can still use Version 3 or Version 2.

If you prefer to use the upgraded version of an API to benefit fro, more advanced capabilities, you will have to recompile your scripts that use that API, since the API Request or API Response structure has been changed.
