hi team!

thanks for the good work in posting release notes and urls to download.

Can I please ask to keep the download URL the same in new releases?every time there is a change in URL, it breaks our automation for auto-updates in our Linux server fleet..from V2 to V3 you guys changed

from: /static/aperture-data-studio/Experian Aperture Data Studio v2 Container.zip

to: /static/aperture-data-studio/Experian Aperture Data Studio v3 Container.zip

now from 3.1 to 3.2 adding the folder structure..

/static/aperture-data-studio/3.2.0/Experian Aperture Data Studio v3 Container.zip

I totally understand that you guys want to keep in an 'easy to read' structure.. but can I suggest to create a copy of the installer in a unique url?

some thing like: /static/aperture-data-studio/ExperianApertureDataStudioContainer.zip

it would help a lot for customer that don't like manual work 😀

    The latest versions of the applications do have static URLs.

    The zip name change happened once in 5 years partly as there was a mandatory license check to do before moving to v3, so automatic upgrade could have been problematic

    For quarterly releases we always put them in a named directory so that they remain available for a few months. v3.2.X will be available soon at the standard location.

    We would of course advise customers to review release notes and any known issues before upgrading to the next version.
