Currently we are using EndOfDayPricingExtractionRequest and extracting CDOR rates from datascope using DSS Rest API with .net program version 4.5 and able to retrive CDOR rates successfully.

In future, if we get any new releases for the API then we have to change/update our existing C#.net program or we can use the same C#.net program ??

  • Gopi Jaladi,

    There are regular new releases for DSS, approximately 4 per year. The new releases often bring increased functionality and new data fields, as well as bug corrections.

    We endeavor to maintain backward compatibility as much as possible, but sometimes there might be changes required by the evolution of the product that could potentially impact your code. This could be related to fields that change name, API calls that change their parameter set or output format, calls that are deprecated, or other changes.

    We strongly recommend you study the release notes of each new version, to see if any changes impact your code (usually they will not). Important changes are notified well in advance (as an example, see this notification on the removal of the extract endpoint), to give you time to study them and take action if required.

    As a best practice, we nevertheless recommend you recompile your code with the latest C# SDK, to benefit from the latest product features and enhancements.
