Is there a way / method for the automation to check the runtime version that the RDA is deployed on? We would like to check if the automation is running on the same version of the Runtime as the Pega Studio.

This is the purpose of Synch server and the updater service. It will ensure that your Runtime matches the Studio version. There is a static method you can use from the “OpenSpan.Runtime.Core.dll” called GetRuntimeVersion. Right-click in the Toolbox (I would do this on the Runtime tab) and then locate the static tab and add the method as shown in the attached screenshot.
