| Defines the version of the UMLS library that is used when analyzing unstructured data. |
The value umls.latest will reference the latest available version of UMLS within the service. As newer versions of UMLS are made available in the service, umls.latest library configurations will automatically leverage the latest available version of UMLS in the service once available. Declaration of a specific version of UMLS is recommended to avoid undesirable changes in output as newer versions of UMLS are made available within the service. Through declaration of a specific version of UMLS, newer versions of UMLS may be evaluated prior to use in production.
