+_This feature was introduced with version 4.3.0 of the extension._
 
 The `vcap-service` exporter lets you ship logs, metrics, and traces to **any OTLP-compatible endpoint** that is described by a Cloud Foundry service binding.
 Unlike the `cloud-logging` or `dynatrace` exporters, it does not require a specific service type.
