# version
[[Source]](https://github.com/XRPLF/rippled/blob/develop/src/ripple/beast/core/SemanticVersion.cpp "Source")
The `version` command retrieves the API version information for the rippled server. For `Clio` servers, see [`version` (`clio`)](../clio-methods/version.md) instead.
## Request Format
An example of the request format:
{% tabs %}
{% tab label="WebSocket" %}
```json
{
"command": "version"
}
```
{% /tab %}
{% tab label="JSON-RPC" %}
```json
{
"method": "version",
"params": [
{}
]
}
```
{% /tab %}
{% tab label="Commandline" %}
```sh
#Syntax: version
rippled version
```
{% /tab %}
{% /tabs %}
[Try it! >](/resources/dev-tools/websocket-api-tool#version)
The request does not takes any parameters.
## Response Format
An example of a successful response:
{% tabs %}
{% tab label="WebSocket" %}
```json
{
"result": {
"version": {
"first": "1.0.0",
"good": "1.0.0",
"last": "1.0.0"
}
},
"status": "success",
"type": "response"
}
```
{% /tab %}

Headers
{
"result": {
"version": {
"first": "1.0.0",
"good": "1.0.0",
"last": "1.0.0"
}
},
"status": "success",
"type": "response"
}
```
{% /tab %}
{% tab label="Commandline" %}
```json
{
"result": {
"version": {
"first": "1.0.0",
"good": "1.0.0",
"last": "1.0.0"
}
},
"status": "success",
"type": "response"
}
```
{% /tab %}
{% /tabs %}
The response follows the [standard format][], with a successful result containing a `version` object as its only field.
The `version` object returns some arrangement of the following fields:
| `Field` | Type | Description |
|:---------|:-------|:------------------------------|
| `first` | String | Lowest supported API release |
| `last` | String | Highest supported API release |
| `good` | String | Default API if none specified |
## Possible Errors
* Any of the [universal error types][].
