Always use an SDK that is compatible with Server & Workload Protection.
Upgrade scenarios
Determine whether you need to change your scripts when Server & Workload Protection is upgraded or you upgrade your SDK to take
advantage of new or improved capabilities.
- Server & Workload Protection is upgraded: There is no need to update your SDK or change your scripts when Server & Workload Protection is upgraded. An SDK is compatible with the version of Server & Workload Protection that it is associated with, and with later versions. For example, the SDK that was released with Server & Workload Protection on March 21, 2021 is compatible with Server & Workload Protection released on August 1, 2021.
- You upgrade your SDK: You might need to make minor changes to your scripts when you upgrade the SDK that you are using. Scripts are not guaranteed to be 100% compatible with versions of the SDK that are later than the version with which the script was created. New versions of the SDK can introduce changes that break your existing scripts. For example, when a new version of an SDK introduces a new required method parameter, to use the new SDK your existing scripts that use that method need to include a corresponding argument.
