The 1.1-rev2 value is added for the x-api-version header. The header must be specified in each request. For details on REST API versions, see Versioning.

In REST API 1.1-rev2, the Veeam Security Administrator and Incident API Operator roles are added.

• Veeam Security Administrator has access to the Credentials and Encryption endpoints.

The Get Authorization Code request is deprecated in REST API 1.1-rev2.

The following minor non-breaking changes are introduced in REST API 1.1-rev2.

In REST API 1.1-rev2, you can specify single-use credentials for Linux servers that you want to use as hardened repositories in the Request TLS Certificate or SSH Fingerprint request.

Now the resourcePool property is not required in the InstantViVMCustomizedRecoveryDestinationSpec object.

Now the Start FCD Migration request returns a session of the FirstClassDiskQuickMigration type.

Breaking changes cause REST API to function differently and can affect the client code.
