Understanding Connector Support for Optimizely B2B

  1. Supported Versions: Our Opti B2B connector is designed to support the latest Long-Term Support (LTS) versions of the Optimizely platform. This includes the current version and the version immediately before it. Moving forward, our focus will be exclusively on supporting Optimizely's LTS versions to ensure stability and reliability for our users.
  2. Short-Term Support (STS) Versions: HawkSearch may conduct basic testing on STS versions, and the results will be shared on our developer portal. If tests are successful, the connector is likely compatible, but we cannot guarantee full functionality. If there are issues, we recommend waiting for the next LTS release before upgrading to ensure compatibility. Customers choosing to upgrade to an STS version should do so understanding the potential risks.
  3. Tested on STS Versions: When we indicate that a connector is tested on an STS version, it means basic regression tests have passed, suggesting it may be safe to upgrade. However, please note that some issues may still occur, and fixes for these may not be available until the next LTS version is released.
  4. Not Tested on STS Versions: If a version is marked as not tested, it means HawkSearch has not performed any compatibility checks for that version. Customers should proceed with caution and at their own discretion when considering an upgrade to these versions.
