Important upgrade notes
⚠️ Instances that use external pre-authentication (i.e. that run behind an authenticating reverse proxy e.g. using Shibboleth) need to perform a manual maintenance action after as part of upgrade from versions before v25 [8].
⚠️ If you use the image sidebar and your images are not hosted on the same server as INCEpTION, make sure to configure the security.csp.allowed-image-sourcesproperty in the settings.properties. Cf. updated documentation on image features.
Please check the upgrade notes [8]
An in-place upgrade from INCEpTION 26.4 to 26.5 is possible. You can usually also perform an in-place upgrade from an older version, but you should make sure that each of the intermediate releases allow an in-place upgrade to the next higher release.
Back up your data before the upgrade [4].
If you upgrade from a version older than 24.0, please check the release notes for INCEpTION 24.0 [7].
