5.213 Version and Build Information

To get detailed version information about MWS, use one of the following three methods:

Browser
REST Request
MANIFEST.MF File

5.213.1 Browser

Using a browser, visit the MWS home page (for example, http://localhost:8080/mws/). At the bottom of the page is the MWS version information. See the screenshot below:

5.213.2 REST Request

Using a REST client or other HTTP client software, send a GET request to the rest/diag/about resource. Here is an example:

curl -u username:password http://localhost:8080/mws/rest/diag/about?api-version=3

This resource is also described under Diagnostics.

5.213.3 MANIFEST.MF File

If MWS fails to start, version and build information can be found in the META-INF/MANIFEST.MF file inside the MWS WAR file. The version properties begin with Implementation. Below is an excerpt of a MANIFEST.MF file:
