Your choice. Edge doesn't "automatically" run Express.

It runs only if you include a nodejs script target into your API Proxy. In that case you specify the dependencies in the package.json file, just as you would with any nodejs app. Therefore YOU specify the version of Express.

We recommend that you use Express 4 or later.

@Dino thanks that was a perfect answer for my level of knowledge. How if you could just hurry up and upgrade to a newer version of Node, then I wouldn't have to run my API on Heroku. Thanks again.

Glad to help! re: node upgrade....We're working on a few things! Stay tuned!
