Web Services 2.0 versus 2.5

This topic gives an overview of the most important changes with Web Services that have a class name that ends with 25 that replace older, 2.0 web services. It should be read to ensure that integrations built using the Web Services delivered with release 3.8.x or older are not affected.

It is important to understand the differences in Web Services 2.0 and 2.5 and how they may affect your integrations. For example, DocumentObj25 replaces DocumentObj20 however, whereas DocumentObj20 could be used for publication and publication version objects in Web Services 2.0, you should not use DocumentObj25 in Web Services 2.5. Instead you should use Publication20. This is explained below along with the other important differences in Web Services 2.5.
