The API is versioned by adding a dated namespace to all the data types and methods exposed through the WSDL. We allow minor ‘non-breaking’ API changes without modifying the namespace. Existing clients continue to work against the updated web service. You only rebuild the web service with the new WSDL if you use the new feature. For example, the service could return an additional field with a classification result.
For any changes that ‘break’ the existing API, we update the dated namespace. This change stops any existing clients from running against the updated web service. In this case, you must rebuild any client applications using the new WSDL definition.
The WSDL version described in this guide is dated 2011/07/15.
In addition to the WSDL-dated namespace, the API also includes ClassifyVersion() and DictionaryVersion() methods to return the API version that the CCS server supports. This API version is updated when any change is made to the API, including ‘non-breaking’ API changes that do not modify the WSDL namespace.
