# Upgrading
import Tabs from '@theme/Tabs';
import TabItem from '@theme/TabItem';
Upgrade RAGFlow to `nightly` or the latest, published release.
:::info NOTE
Upgrading RAGFlow in itself will *not* remove your uploaded/historical data. However, be aware that `docker compose -f docker/docker-compose.yml down -v` will remove Docker container volumes, resulting in data loss.
:::
## Upgrade RAGFlow to `nightly`, the most recent, tested Docker image
`nightly` refers to the RAGFlow Docker image without embedding models.
To upgrade RAGFlow, you must upgrade **both** your code **and** your Docker image:
1. Stop the server
```bash
docker compose -f docker/docker-compose.yml down
```
2. Update the local code
```bash
git pull
```
3. Update **ragflow/docker/.env**:
```bash
RAGFLOW_IMAGE=infiniflow/ragflow:nightly
```
4. Update RAGFlow image and restart RAGFlow:
```bash
docker compose -f docker/docker-compose.yml pull
docker compose -f docker/docker-compose.yml up -d
```
## Upgrade RAGFlow to given release
To upgrade RAGFlow, you must upgrade **both** your code **and** your Docker image:

## Frequently asked questions
### Do I need to back up my datasets before upgrading RAGFlow?
No, you do not need to. Upgrading RAGFlow in itself will *not* remove your uploaded data or dataset settings. However, be aware that `docker compose -f docker/docker-compose.yml down -v` will remove Docker container volumes, resulting in data loss.
### Upgrade RAGFlow in an offline environment (without Internet access)
1. From an environment with Internet access, pull the required Docker image.
2. Save the Docker image to a **.tar** file.
```bash
docker save -o ragflow.v0.23.1.tar infiniflow/ragflow:v0.23.1
```
3. Copy the **.tar** file to the target server.
4. Load the **.tar** file into Docker:
```bash
docker load -i ragflow.v0.23.1.tar
```
