Updating Helmo Middleware
Automatic updates, version tracking, and manual upgrades for Helmo Middleware.
Helmo Middleware supports automatic updates so you always have the latest features and bug fixes.
How updates work
Helmo Middleware checks for new versions on launch and periodically while running. When an update is available:
- The app shows a notification that a new version is available.
- The update downloads automatically in the background.
- You're prompted to restart the app to apply the update.
Checking your current version
Your Helmo Middleware version is visible in:
- The Helmo Middleware app itself (shown in the title bar or settings).
- The Middlewares page in Helmo (the version column shows each instance's reported version).
Admin push updates
Platform administrators can trigger update notifications from the Admin Dashboard. When an admin pushes an update, all connected Helmo Middleware instances are notified to check for the latest version.
Manual update
If automatic update fails:
- Download the latest installer from the Middlewares page.
- Close the current Helmo Middleware app.
- Run the new installer. It will replace the existing version.
- Launch the app and verify the new version in the title bar.
The current stable version is v1.7.0. Check the Middlewares page in Admin to see which version each of your instances is running.
