I want to get latest version number of 50+ appian objects. Is there a way to write some script to get there version number based on their names. Currently i had to open each objects manually and note its version number.

Other commentor has provided you with the solution but why would you need the versions of the objects in the code? Versions are something that designers use to compare and restore any lost functionality but why would you need to write it as logic in your ER/Interface?
At the time of moving objects from one enviorment to other. I need to keep record of versions that i am deploying.
This sounds like some development standard implemented by the company, which I would challenge - would be interested to hear the business logic behind it.
You can easily compare deployment timestamps to version timestamps if needed, and object versions do not persist between environments - so an object with version 50 in dev will match the same object with say, version 12 in production.
We considered manually logging versions early on, but abandoned it for many reasons, and I have not needed anything like this in 13 years. Just my $.02!

Agreed - totally a case of (as i said already earlier in the other thread), "putting the cart before the horse" in a sense.
Also, as an aside k5095 it'd be helpful to keep discussion about the same subject all in one thread, instead of starting new threads for something that's still basically the same topic...
