## Upgrade Guide

- Always backup your database before upgrading! Always backup your database! Always backup your database!
- You can also backup the entire project code.

Since the Auth: CAS, Auth: OIDC, Auth: SAML three SSO plugins are removed from the open-source code, the upgrade will be divided into two cases.

### If you are not using SSO plugins

Please follow the [conventional method](https://docs.nocobase.com/welcome/getting-started/upgrading) for upgrading.

### If you are using SSO plugins

Please follow these steps to upgrade:

#### 1. Upgrade the Application

Refer to [NocoBase Upgrade Overview](/welcome/getting-started/upgrading), and upgrade NocoBase to the latest version.

If you previously enabled CAS, OIDC, SAML plugins, you will see the following prompts during the upgrade:

Command line upgrade terminal prompt:

![20240428212151](https://static-docs.nocobase.com/20240428212151.png)

Docker version interface prompt:

![20240428194926](https://static-docs.nocobase.com/20240428194926.png)

#### 2. Remove Plugins or Obtain Plugin Version 1.0?

***If you choose to remove the plugins and continue upgrading:***

Remove the plugins according to the prompts

```bash
# Main application
yarn pm remove cas oidc saml --force
# If it's a sub-application, add the --app parameter
yarn pm remove cas oidc saml --force --app=sub-app1
```

Continue upgrading

```bash
yarn nocobase upgrade
```

***If you choose to update the plugins to version 1.0***

Contact the NocoBase team to obtain version 1.0 of the plugins and continue with the upgrade.

#### 3. CAS, OIDC, SAML Plugin Upgrade Process

At this point, the application interface is no longer accessible, so we need to upgrade manually.

1. Log in with your account at [service.nocobase.com](https://service.nocobase.com) to download the latest version of the plugins.
2. Unzip the plugins to the specified directory
    - CAS plugin unzip to `./storage/plugins/@nocobase/plugin-auth-cas`
    - OIDC plugin unzip to `./storage/plugins/@nocobase/plugin-auth-oidc`
    - SAML plugin unzip to `./storage/plugins/@nocobase/plugin-auth-saml`
3. Upgrade the application
    - For Docker version, simply restart the container
    - For source code or create-nocobase-app version
        1. Download dependencies `yarn install`
        2. Execute upgrade command `yarn nocobase upgrade`
        3. Restart the application
