# Versioning

Versioning will be specified by the release date of each version, at first and due to the simplicity of the API all calls will be made through the same version. Version changes will be notified by the usual means and will be done automatically as long as they are backward compatible.

## Backward compatibility

A version is considered to be backwards compatible with the previous version whenever:

* Adding endpoints
* Adding options to call parameters
* Adding attributes to response resources
* Do not modifying/removing call parameters or their interpretation
* Do not modifying endpoint responses
* Do not deleting endpoints

For this reason it is recommended that if your integration uses schema-based validation of the API be flexible in accepting new attributes in the resources.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.viloud.tv/readme/versioning.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
