Software Versions Tab​

The Versions tab displays all available software versions and allows you to:

  • Add new versions using the "Add version" button
  • Upload installation packages for each version
  • Delete a specific version

When adding a version, the version number must follow semantic versioning format (e.g., "1.0.0.0") and correspond to the version number reported by the package.
