I see that the response has a version number. Is there a way to request a version number to be used?

If so are versions supported for a fixed amount of time?

No, sorry, that’s not possible due to the architecture of the software. It’s fairly monolithic and supporting multiple versions would mean to run multiple full graphs of the planet, which is way out of scope for a free project.
