Add `vsphereapiversion` CE attribute
embano1 opened this issue · 2 comments
Even though not explicitly stated, event schemas for vSphere are tied to a particular vSphere release, i.e. could break between major releases (even minor). Currently there is no way to detect the vSphere version that generated a particular event. This could lead to decoding errors in functions if a schema breaks in a non-compatible way between vSphere releases.
Ideally, vSphere events should carry a version indicating the schema version/contract consumers can rely on. Providing OpenAPI schemas would be neat to but seems not feasible as an implementation in vSphere currently.
The short-term solution would be to use a custom context attribute vsphereapiversion to reflect the vSphere API version an adapter is connected to.
