DX Api - 7.2.1 Compatibility
Hello
Can i deploy a Pega 7.2.1 Application on Pega 8.3/8.4 version and still leverage DX Api in Pega 8.x version?
Do i have any limitation in terms of development?
Regards,
Sarjak

Hi,
DX API's currently support limited UI layouts and have other specific criteria's that your case type design must fulfill before you can leverage them.
Please refer to below link for more information about those aspects.

Given that you application is built on 7.2.1, it is highly unlikely that your case type will meet those criteria's.
In Short, you probably have two options if you are keen to use DX API's.
1. Convert all your un-supported layouts and other related elements to supported ones (which might not be feasible).
2. Use DX API's as Headless API's - what that means is that you are sending just data and not UI control and layout information to your digital platform.
If the above options don't work for you, then I would suggest to use Mashup.
Hope this helps.
Thanks
