How to check available FB8-version dynamically?

FinalBuilder Feature Requests

Hi,
I am trying to get the latest FB8-version and save it to variable so I can do something like:
if update_available == true
return “A newer Version is available”
or
if available_fb8_version > current_fb8_version:
print( “A newer Version is available”)
else:

I can get current FB8-Version with "Extract Version Info"-Action

Is there any possibility to get available FB8-version in float form? Or maybe you have another issue.

There isn’t any automatic way to do this, not something that has come up recently.
Since we generally publish to Chocolatey when a new version is released, you could use it, see attached example.
