I want to install BigBlueButton and found the following command from [BigBlueButton official website][1]

wget -qO- https://ubuntu.bigbluebutton.org/bbb-install.sh | bash -s -- -v bionic-230-dev -s bbb.example.com -e notice@example.com -a -w

My question is how to install another version. for example with this command i will install version bionic-230-dev, But i need to install version 2.3 alpha 2.I couldn't find any list for the available versions to replace [1]: https://docs.bigbluebutton.org/dev/dev23.html

Not particularly sure for the alpha release, however I was looking for for a similar answer with the release branch. I was running the following provided by the bigbluebutton/bbb-install documentation:

wget -qO- https://ubuntu.bigbluebutton.org/bbb-install.sh | sudo bash -s -- -w -v xenial-22 -s bbb.example.com -e notice@example.com

However, that always installs the latest BBB release.

After a bit of searching through the bbb dev google group, I found the following solution:

Update -v xenial-22 to -v xenial-220-2.2.27, and I was able to install the particular version I was looking for, 2.2.27.

I gave a small attempt to figure out the install tag for the alpha version, but I was unable to find anything for your use case in particular. If you did come across a solution, please share.

One thing to note, that because it is an alpha version, it is subject to breaking changes, which is why I haven't adapted to the 2.3 version until it is officially released. There's a chance that they just update the alpha release tag, without creating a new one, which could be why I couldn't find a particular tag for the version you were requesting. Ultimately, I believe you might need to reach out to the BBB dev google group, to determine the specific release tag.

You can view the commit history of readme file (here). By this way, you can see the shell command to install older versions of bbb.

For example, you can install version 2.0 as follows (see commit):

wget -qO- https://ubuntu.bigbluebutton.org/bbb-install.sh | bash -s -- -w -a -v xenial-200 -s test.example.com -e info@example.com

In order to install an exact specific release of bigbluebutton (alpha, beta, ...), you should find the release in here(releases list) and at there, there is a paragraph titled Release name where you can find versioning and installation instructions.
