Version: 8.9 (unreleased)

Installation

Technical Preview

The C# SDK is a technical preview available from Camunda 8.9. It will become fully supported in Camunda 8.10. Its API surface may change in future releases without following semver.

dotnet add package Camunda.Orchestration.Sdk

Versioning​

This SDK does not follow traditional semver. The major.minor version tracks the Camunda server version, so you can easily match the SDK to your deployment target (e.g. SDK 8.9.x targets Camunda 8.9).

Patch releases contain fixes, features, and occasionally breaking type changes. A breaking type change typically means an upstream API definition fix that corrects the shape of a request or response model — your code may stop compiling even though it worked before.

When this happens, we signal it in the CHANGELOG.

Recommended approach:

  • Ride the latest — accept that types may shift and update your code when it happens. This keeps you on the most accurate API surface.

  • Pin and review — pin to a specific patch version and review the CHANGELOG before upgrading:
