@gmaran23 Your input is required on this, how do you think this should be done or what's the most optimal approach to go about this?

@njmulsqb Could we keep the discussion here https://github.com/zaproxy/zap-api-dotnet/pull/15 ?

[njmulsqb]

@gmaran23 sure, but that is a PR related to API up-gradation to 2.12, I just created an issue dedicated to .NET version for record.

[gmaran23]

Thanks for clarifying. Building the new API client for ZAP version 2.12 now requires upgrading the .Net version as well.

Getting the PR (https://github.com/zaproxy/zap-api-dotnet/pull/15) done is going to help upgrade the .NET version to 4.8.

[gmaran23]

@njmulsqb New dll is targeted to .NET framework version 4.8.

For reference, API has been upgraded to .NET Framework 4.8 @gmaran23 We can use this issue for up-gradation to .NET 7
