Available Hive API Versions

Hive is designed as a central single-source-of-truth that should be relied on by other systems. It is intended for these other services to interact with Hive via its HTTP REST API, which exposes several endpoints for different use-cases. The following are the API versions currently supported by Hive:

• /api/v0: Version 0 (legacy) — See documentation
• /api/v1: Version 1 (preferred) — See documentation

New endpoints or opt-in functionalities may be added to existing API versions, but any changes will always be backwards compatible within that major API version. Breaking changes may only be introduced through the implementation of another separate API version, which will then be listed above when sufficiently stabilized.
