Update your workspace version - Amazon Managed Grafana

Update your workspace version

You can update your Amazon Managed Grafana workspace to a newer version of Grafana in the Amazon Managed Grafana console in two ways.

Note

You can only update the version to a newer version of Grafana. You can't downgrade to a previously released version of Grafana.

Updating your version of Grafana will not update the plugins that are installed in your workspace. You might need to individually update any plugins that are not compatible with the new version of Grafana. For details on viewing and managing plugins, see Find plugins with the plugin catalog. For a list of changes in each version, see Differences between Grafana versions.

Option 1 - Update the version from the list of workspaces
  1. Open the Amazon Managed Grafana console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/grafana.

  2. In the left navigation pane, choose the menu icon.

  3. Choose All workspaces.

  4. In the row containing the details for the workspace you want to update, choose Update version. Only workspaces that are eligible to be updated will include this option.

    Warning

    The update process is irreversible and can't be paused or canceled. We recommend testing the newer version in a non-production environment before updating a production workspace. During an update, you can't make changes to the workspace.

  5. Choose a version number from the dropdown on the Update version screen and click Update to confirm.

  6. Periodically check the status of your update on the Workspaces tab. The update process could take up to 10 minutes. During this process, the workspace will be in 'read only' mode. A banner update will display to indicate if your workspace update succeeded or failed. If your update failed, follow the action items outlined in the banner and try again.
