Update bundle versions in this application [Settings]

Update the versions of the bundles that comprise this application. We can configure the deployed asset to use an updated version of any bundle or composite bundle used by the asset. We can choose to use a specific bundle version, or to pull in the latest compatible version.

To view this panel in the administrative console, click the following path:

Applications > Application Types > Assets > asset_name > [Additional Properties] Update bundle versions in this application

This option is not available if the bundle downloads for any previous update have not yet completed.

This panel contains a tabular overview of the bundles and composite bundles currently deployed in the asset. Application bundles are listed separately from use bundles.

In the table, you can select the update preference for each bundle from a list. We can choose either of the following options:

After you make your selections for this asset, click Preview to see the result of the proposed changes in the Preview bundle versions update [Settings] panel.

When an EBA asset is updated, the update does not automatically affect the running business-level application.

To update the running application, you update the composition unit of the business-level application that contains the asset.
