Upgrading from a Previous Version

This section details the requirements for upgrading to the latest version of the Quik! Forms Engine. Follow the directions outlined in the pages below to ensure you're calling the latest Web Services and integrating the latest code changes.

SOAP Web Services

Updating your implementation of the Quik! Forms Engine to a new version is as simple as updating the URLs for all web service endpoints (be sure to use version 5500 when calling the latest version of SOAP APIs). The latest versions of all SOAP URL endpoints can be found in the SOAP Web Services section of the Quik! API Guide.

REST Web Services

Quik! Forms Engine REST web services do not require updating between versions. For all REST service endpoints, visit the REST APIs section of the Quik! API Guide. Note that while the majority of endpoints exist in REST and SOAP, Quik! is still in the process of migrating all SOAP endpoints to REST. The vast majority of customers that use version 5.5 of the Quik! Forms Engine call our REST services for their implementation.

Quik! Forms Engine DLL

Follow the steps below to upgrade to the latest version of the Quik! Forms Engine DLL.

  1. Download the latest version of the DLL in the Quik! Forms Engine Sandbox link on the downloads page of this documentation

  2. Update the reference to the DLL in your development environment
