Issue with checking latest Preview version after PR

[fultonm]

Is there any chance this PR #1
caused issues downloading the minecraft preview version?
I have been using this helper for years to keep the preview version up to date by polling every 4 hours or so, but this morning at 10:30am, it downloaded and deployed the latest Release version, instead of latest Preview version, causing the clients to say the host is out of date
And I noticed the endpoint I poll is returning 1.21.84.1 instead of 1.21.100.20, so that is why.

Upon further investigation, my custom VM script only query this endpoint to know when to trigger a server restart. and it used to query for the latest preview version.

SO it seems the update logic is all contained within the container.

My docker-compose.yaml hasn't changed -

So I'm guessing the container also uses this endpoint to know which version to download, and it downloaded latest release instead of preview?

Update: I am using the latest container image (sha256:a4c8739f93e7a35067fe57b40f9d1d75dd8ff74e649053eff41ee262cb003652)
Same issue. The server does not download the PREVIEW version.

You might be reporting in the wrong repo. This change

itzg/docker-minecraft-bedrock-server#525

Was a first round of change to deal with Mojang changing their download site, which broke the existing automation.

This serverless endpoint never has supported querying for the preview/snapshot version.

Instead a follow up change will be done to the bedrock image to restore preview version retrieval.

FYI there's a now an API for retrieving the preview download URL
