This morning I am starting to see this “randomly” in pipelines on [cloud.drone.io](http://cloud.drone.io) “Error response from daemon: client version 1.40 is too new. Maximum supported API version is 1.39” For example [https://cloud.drone.io/cs3org/reva/2291/4/1](https://cloud.drone.io/cs3org/reva/2291/4/1) Do we have to start defining variables like DOCKER\_API\_VERSION in our drone config? Or is this something that needs to be sorted out generally in [cloud.drone.io](http://cloud.drone.io) ? ---

Similar to [Deployment: Error response from daemon: client version 1.40 is too new. Maximum supported API version is 1.39](http://discuss.harness.io/t/deployment-error-response-from-daemon-client-version-1-40-is-too-new-maximum-supported-api-version-is-1-39/7812) But it has “suddenly/unexpectedly” started happening on the public [cloud.drone.io](http://cloud.drone.io) ---

2 lots of CI passed just now. Maybe this has been fixed.
