Question

Is there a way to know which Pivotal Cloud Foundry licensed version we are using?

As a normal cf user of Pivotal Cloud Foundry/Elastic Runtime/Application Service it can be a little tedious to figure out what version is running.

As a cf user you can start with cf target or cf api to get the target CF's API version:

api version: 2.98.0

Next, paginate thru https://github.com/cloudfoundry/capi-release/releases whilst searching for "2.98.0".

For 2.98.0 I found CAPI release 1.44.0 https://github.com/cloudfoundry/capi-release/releases/tag/1.44.0

Now, do a google search for "capi 1.44.0 site:https://docs.pivotal.io/pivotalcf"

This returned one result - https://docs.pivotal.io/pivotalcf/2-0/pcf-release-notes/runtime-rn.html - So I now know my company is running PCF 2.0.

Next, to figure out which specific PAS version (or Elastic Runtime if using PCF 1.X).

Search thru the document for CAPI version "1.44.0".

This might return multiple versions. For API version 2.98.0/CAPI 1.44.0 I see that it might be any PCF/PAS version from 2.0.0 to 2.0.7.
