Hi
Are there any out of the box functions or any automated way to know the updates to the plug-ins those are available in forum-> Shared components.
Thanks and Regards

The only option what I am aware of is to subscribe the plug-in changes to get to know if there are any updates or version changes..

Thanks saravanana for the Quick response. We know that we can get an updates on subscribing the plug-in. But interested in building some automated process in Appian.

@naveenp Did you consider the 'Follow' feature available for a Record?
To the best of my knowledge, Subscribe or Unsubscribe will only control what category posts we can or can't see in the Forum based on our interest.
Whereas when a Record is 'Follow'ed, notifications will be pushed via email automatically about the updates being made in the corresponding Record.
AFAIK, 'Follow'ing a Record in Shared Components is the only way but let's see if any other practitioners can suggest a new and better alternative.

Thanks sikhivahans. I did try. But my requirement is a bit different and want to get it with in Appian and generates some report which should shows and compare the installed plug-in versions with the available latest plug-in versions from the Forum.

@naveenp In that case, the answer to your question is No for the time-being. It is only possible when Appian provides a way to access it's information. As per my knowledge, still we can't say that whatever we desire for is available with Appian because each and every piece of information might not be stored. For instance, a plugin contribution has been done by me. While providing the documentation for the plugin, a very basic information has been requested and I don't think reading the data of the component will result in the way as you have been looking for.
