determine whether there is a job corresponding to the first version, and

notify a result of the determination to the user.

5. The information processing apparatus according to claim 4 ,

wherein the processor is further configured to execute the instructions to,

display a list of the corresponding jobs after the notification of the result of the determination.

6. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to execute the instructions to

provide notification that the version of the web service supported by the firmware of the information processing apparatus registered to the web service is different to a version of the web service that the information processing apparatus can support.

7. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising

a storage unit configured to store the version of the web service before the update that is notified from the information processing apparatus to the web service for registration to the web service that is performed before the update, wherein the storage unit continues to hold version information of the web service before and after the update of the firmware,

wherein the processor is further configured to execute the instructions to

obtain, before the update, a version of the web service from the storage unit as the first version, and

obtain, after the update, a version of the web service as the second version by examining the firmware.

8. The information processing apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein the obtaining of the first version and the obtaining of the second version are performed after activation of the information processing apparatus accompanying an update of the firmware.

9. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the information processing apparatus is a printing apparatus, and

the web service is a print service for accepting a print job from an external terminal, processing the accepted print job, and transmitting the processed print job to the printing apparatus.

10. A method of controlling an information processing apparatus for communicating with a web service that is registered to the web service, the method comprising:

registering, to a web service, a version of the web service supported by the information processing apparatus and identification information of the information processing apparatus, before an update of firmware of the information processing apparatus for communication with the web service;

updating the firmware of the information processing apparatus for communicating with the web service,

obtaining a version of the web service supported by the information processing apparatus before the update as a first version;

obtaining a version of the web service supported by the information processing apparatus after the update as a second version; and

controlling a display unit to display information for allowing a user to confirm whether to delete registration of the version of the web service supported by the information processing apparatus before the update and the identification information, in a case where the first version and the second version differ from each other and it is determined that the version of the web service supported by the information processing before the update and the identification information are registered to the web service.

11. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program for causing an information processing apparatus to perform

registering, to a web service, a version of the web service supported by the information processing apparatus and identification information of the information processing apparatus, before an update of firmware of the information processing apparatus for communication with the web service;

updating the firmware of the information processing apparatus for communicating with a web service,

obtaining a version of the web service supported by the information processing apparatus before the update as a first version;

obtaining a version of the web service supported by the information processing apparatus after the update as a second version;

controlling a display unit to display information for allowing a user to confirm whether to delete registration of the version of the web service supported by the information processing apparatus before the update and the identification information, in a case where the first version and the second version differ from each other and it is determined that the version of the web service supported by the information processing apparatus before the update and the identification information are registered to the web service.
