How to downgrade to an older compatible version

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for downgrading apps to a previous version. This can be useful if there are blocking problems with the newest version.

    2. Select Manage Apps from the menu.

    3. Locate the plugin you wish to downgrade.

  • Test these steps in the stage environment first.

  • Ensure you have the necessary permissions to uninstall and install apps.

  • Verify compatibility of the older plugin version with your current Confluence instance to avoid potential issues.

  • If you encounter any problems or the plugin does not behave as expected, submit a support request.
