September 2, 2019 at 8:28amUpdate vscode default api version?
September 2, 2019 at 8:28amCan the default api version of vscode be updated to the latest (1.37.1) ?
Currently it's configured in theia to be 1.33.1 and missing some new apis.

Are there any restriction doing so?

you can also specify vscode api version on start, see https://github.com/theia-ide/theia/pull/4774#issue-266298249

There is new file system api since 1.36 https://code.visualstudio.com/updates/v1_36#_vscodeworkspacefs
there are usually 2 issues, an extension cannot start because version is not supported yet or api is not implemented. Just bumping up a version will solve the first one. In order to implement a new API, we need a separate PR.
