I'm creating a custom entity so that I can retrieve the version information of the current running version of FinOps (in this case, 10.0.20). There are a lot of tables and I've spent a good amount of time searching but haven't had any luck yet. Is there a specific table or query I can use to find this?
Take a look on ApplicationVersion class
Hi Nuno,
Thanks for the response, are you aware of any documentation for how I can use this class to set up a data entity, or how I could set up a query using the class? I need to access it from outside the VM. If this doesn't make sense I can try to elaborate more on what I'm trying to do.
Since data entities are designed for exporting/importing data, and the version information is not stored in the database, perhaps a custom service would be a better solution than a data entity? Otherwise you would need to develop your own table, and write a batch job that keeps updating the version information that you would store in that table.
Hi Nikolaos,
This was very helpful, thank you. So I looked at some documentation and have been attempting to get this service working, but I'm running into a problem that you might be able to help me with. I'll attach some pictures for reference below, but I created a method that instantiates this ApplicationVersion class and returns the build number, however I'm not getting what I expected in the response. I created a custom service group and attached my custom service (with my GetVersion method) to the group so I can call this method through the API.
Sorry, I'm new to these forums and it wasn't clear how to attach a picture so I uploaded them here:

You'll find a link to examples in the end of this dpc page: docs.microsoft.com/.../custom-services
Ah, I just needed to make it a POST request instead of GET... a bit embarrassing.
Thank you for your time and help!!
