8.3: Ignition SDK module compatibility with previous versions

3rd Party Modules
1

Hello,

I would like to deploy a module that was developed on Ignition 8.1 to Ignition 8.3. When I set the minimum required version to one of the Ignition 8.1 required versions, I get a warning message that the module “requires Ignition 8.1.36 (b0) and is not compatible with Ignition 8.3.0 (b2025091510).” Is it possible to deploy modules that were built for 8.1 to 8.3? I would have thought that if the minimum required version was an 8.1 version, it would be compatible.

Thanks!

No, you'll have to recompile it for 8.3, likely with some code changes required.

I’ve been using GitHub - inductiveautomation/ignition-module-tools: Tools that help in the creation and development of Modules for Inductive Automation's Ignition. to generate template for ignition module for development, is this still a valid approach with module for 8.3?
