Compatibility Guidelines for Control Plane, SDK, and Python Versions

This guide defines the compatibility rules between the Control Plane (CP), SDK, and Python versions. Use this guide to verify supported version combinations and plan safe upgrades.

Currently Supported SDK Versions

The SDK compatibility policy supports both the current SDK version and the immediately preceding version.

SDK VersionStatus
26.3.0 Current
26.2.1 Previous (supported)

SDK versions older than these are not guaranteed to be supported.

Control Plane and SDK Compatibility

Policy (Effective from SDK v26.3.0)

Compatibility between Control Plane (CP) and SDK is confirmed within the same major.minor version line (X.Y.*).

The SDK also supports interoperability between the latest two minor versions.

Supported Combinations

Control Plane VersionSDK VersionStatus
CP X.Y.*SDK X.Y.* Confirmed
CP X.Y.*SDK X.(Y-1).* Confirmed
CP X.Y.*SDK X.(Y-2).* Not Guaranteed

Example

Control Plane VersionSDK VersionStatus
CP 26.3.*SDK 26.3.0 Confirmed
CP 26.3.*SDK 26.2.1 Confirmed
CP 26.3.*SDK 26.1.* Not Guaranteed

SDK Backward Compatibility

Starting with SDK 26.3.0, the SDK supports:

SDK VersionSupported or Not
Current Version Supported
Previous Version Supported
Older Versions Not Guaranteed

Note If issues are encountered on unsupported SDK versions, resolution may require upgrading to a supported version.

Python and SDK Compatibility

Each supported Python version is guaranteed to work with the current SDK version and the previous SDK version.

Python VersionSupported SDK Version
Python 3.1426.3.0, 26.2.1
Python 3.1326.3.0, 26.2.1
Python 3.1226.3.0, 26.2.1
Python 3.1126.3.0, 26.2.1
Python 3.1026.3.0, 26.2.1

Compatibility with other Python versions is not guaranteed.

This compatibility policy is effective starting from SDK 26.3.0 and applies going forward. It is not retroactively applicable to older or previously released SDK versions.

SDK versions older than the previous supported version are not guaranteed to be supported. Issues discovered on such versions may not be investigated or fixed until the environment is upgraded to a supported SDK version.
