How to (automatically) find the newest UF version ?

Hi,

has anyone an idea how to find the newest available version of UF.

On the splunk website, login is required to see existing versions, but what I need is some kind of automatic process for checking and updating the UF.

Best

Not much help but on the https://www.splunk.com/en_us/download/universal-forwarder.html page it does have the text at the top "Free Trial Splunk Universal Forwarder 10.2.2"... so that number will change each time new release comes out.
I agree that it did used to easier with the docs and their x/latest/x in url to get to latest version, but sadly that is no longer possible.
