Public API
Camunda Platform 8 provides a public API. This section covers the definition of the public API and backwards compatibility for version updates.
Backwards compatibility for public API​
Camunda Platform 8 versioning scheme follows the MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH pattern put forward by semantic versioning. Camunda Platform 8 will
maintain public API backwards compatibility for MINOR version updates.
Example: Update from version 1.0.x to 1.1.y will not break the public API.

Currently, both Zeebe API and Tasklist API are officially supported APIs:
All non-implementation Java packages (package name does not contain impl) of the following Maven modules.
io.camunda:zeebe-client-java
Other APIs and clients​
Currently, we cannot guarantee backwards compatibility with other APIs and clients, though we do work to offer backwards compatibility to the best of our ability.
