# Upgrade the Generator version

For more details, please refer to: [Test a Generator upgrade](https://knowledge.bigenius-x.com/test-a-generator-upgrade?hsLang=en).

### Upgrade the Generator Version of your Project

To upgrade the Generator Configuration Version, there are two possibilities:

1. **Mandatory upgrade**: if a new mandatory version is available, please upgrade when you start modeling the relevant Branch. See [Start modeling in a Branch](https://knowledge.bigenius-x.com/start-modeling-in-a-branch?hsLang=en).
2. **Optional upgrade**: if a new optional version is available, click on the Project Settings menu in the [**Navigation Bar**](https://knowledge.bigenius-x.com/understand-navigation-bar?hsLang=en):

The **Project Settings** side panel window is opened:

If you are not using the latest version of the Generator Configuration, a button **UPDATE to: version** will prompt you to upgrade your Generator to the next available version.

Click on the **UPDATE to: version** button.

A confirmation pop-up is opened:

By clicking on the **View release notes** button, a new tab opens on the Knowledge Base, Product Release Notes category:

![](https://knowledge.bigenius-x.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Dec-19-2024-10-14-34-3195-AM.png?width=670&height=388&name=image-png-Dec-19-2024-10-14-34-3195-AM.png)

You can consult the corresponding release notes for the new Generator version.

Click on the UPDATE button.

A notification confirms the correct update:

Your Project Generator Version is now up-to-date:

If your current Generator Version is not the one immediately before the latest available, you must update through each skipped Version in sequence.
