Why would you run an earlier version of the software when it supports earlier versions of SQL Server? I think the function could be updated to support each of the major versions, but there's some work to do to discover each of the update feeds.
I've updated the existing function to return the latest version. Hopefully this update might fix the recent issue with not returning the latest versions.

Sometimes you need to run an earlier version to support certain specific SQL server versions (Yes you can pretty much connect to any historic version of SQL Server with the very latest version but sometimes you need a certain Base version to use some SQL Server functions). IIRC, to work with SSIS on SQL 2014 it requires the user to use SSMS v18.x, so if there is a newer version of SSMS v18.x is released to fix a vulnerability, I'd like to know about it.

Thanks v20.1 is now being offered
What is your feature request?
Further to https://github.com/aaronparker/evergreen/issues/685 and https://github.com/aaronparker/evergreen/issues/686...
It would be useful for Evergreen to offer the latest versions of all SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) Base versions, to give Evergreen users more choice.
Currently
Get-EvergreenApp MicrosoftSsms
only offers the latest Base Version 20 build (v20.0.70.0 *)* This is the latest version Evergreen knows about - but is not currently the latest available version - v20.1 is see: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/ssms/release-notes-ssms?view=sql-server-ver16#current-ssms-release
I'd like to ask if the Evergreen function can be extended to return an additional 'Base Version' attribute, so multiple 'latest' versions of SSMS can be returned by the
Get-EvergreenApp MicrosoftSsms
This will allow users of Evergreen to additionally filter the results the specific Base version they require.
Verbose output for Get-EvergreenApp MicrosoftSsms:
Have you tested against the current version?
Have you reviewed the documentation?
