[subs="attributes"]

Upgrades all {transforms}.
[[upgrade-transforms-request]]
== {api-request-title}
`POST _transform/_upgrade`
[[upgrade-transforms-prereqs]]
== {api-prereq-title}
Requires the following privileges:
* cluster: `manage_transform` (the `transform_admin` built-in role grants this
privilege)
[[upgrade-transforms-desc]]
== {api-description-title}
{transforms-cap} are compatible across minor versions and between supported
major versions. However, over time, the format of {transform} configuration
information may change. This API identifies {transforms} which have a legacy
configuration format and upgrades them to the latest version; including clean up
of the internal data structures that store {transform} state and checkpoints.
{transform-cap} upgrade does not affect the source and destination indices.
NOTE: From {es} 8.10.0, a new version number is used to
track the configuration and state changes in the {transform} plugin. This new
version number is decoupled from the product version and will increment
independently.
If a {transform} upgrade step fails, the upgrade stops, and an error is returned
about the underlying issue. Resolve the issue then re-run the process again. A
summary is returned when the upgrade is finished.
To ensure {ctransforms} remain running during a major version upgrade of the
cluster for example, from 7.16 to 8.0 it is recommended to upgrade
{transforms} before upgrading the cluster. You may want to perform a recent
cluster backup prior to the upgrade.
[IMPORTANT]
====
* When {es} {security-features} are enabled, your {transform} remembers the
roles of the user who created or updated it last. In contrast to
<<update-transform,update transform>>, a {transform} upgrade does not change the
stored roles, therefore the role used to read source data and write to the
destination index remains unchanged.

[[upgrade-transforms-query-parms]]
== {api-query-parms-title}
`dry_run`::
(Optional, Boolean) When `true`, only checks for updates but does not execute
them. Defaults to `false`.
`timeout`::
(Optional, time)
Period to wait for a response. If no response is received before the timeout
expires, the request fails and returns an error. Defaults to `30s`.
[[upgrade-transforms-response-body]]
== {api-response-body-title}
`needs_update`::
(integer) The number of {transforms} that need to be upgraded.
`no_action`::
(integer) The number of {transforms} that don't require upgrading.
`updated`::
(integer) The number of {transforms} that have been upgraded.
[[upgrade-transforms-example]]
== {api-examples-title}
To upgrade the legacy {transforms} to the latest configuration format, perform
the following API call:
[source,console]
--------------------------------------------------
POST _transform/_upgrade
--------------------------------------------------
// TEST[setup:simple_kibana_continuous_pivot]
When all {transforms} are upgraded, you receive a summary:
[source,console-result]

{
"needs_update": 0,
"updated": 2,
"no_action": 1
}
