Simply download the latest version of the installation .AppImage from the download page (opens in a new tab) and then execute this new .AppImage and delete the old one. This will persist your data, but allow you to use the latest version of the software.


Updating on Docker

  • Stop the container currently running AnythingLLM so the port is freed.
  • docker pull mintplexlabs/anythingllm to pull the latest image.
  • Restart the container pointed at the same storage location defined during previous boot.

You should always deploy or start the AnythingLLM container using the command found in our local docker setup
