Determine an Adapter's Version Number

Before you deploy an adapter to a production instance of Oracle Integration, determine and set a version number for the adapter.

  • For the first release: If you are deploying an adapter for the first time on an Oracle Integration instance, set the version number to 1.0.0. To edit the version number, see Set the Version Number of an Adapter.

  • For subsequent releases: If you are releasing an update for an existing adapter on an Oracle Integration instance, perform the following tasks to determine the version number for the adapter:
    1. Using the VS Code extension, perform a version check. See Check the Version Number Recommendation.

      The extension makes a recommendation after analyzing the difference between the current and previous versions of the adapter definition document. The recommendation is in terms of the update type, for example: major, minor, or patch.

      Note:

      Currently, the Rapid Adapter Builder doesn't allow a major version change.
    2. Translate the recommendation to a version number. See Types of Updates with Semantic Versioning.
    3. Update the version number in the adapter definition document. See Set the Version Number of an Adapter.

Note:

When you iteratively build your adapter, you may have updated the version number several times for test deployments of the adapter. Ensure that you change the adapter's version number to an appropriate value for the production deployment.
