Update the solution

If you have previously deployed the solution, follow this procedure to update the QnABot on AWS CloudFormation stack to get the latest version of the solution’s framework.

1. Sign in to the AWS CloudFormation console, select your existing QnABot on AWS CloudFormation stack, and choose Update.

2. Select Replace current template.

3. Enter the appropriate Amazon S3 URL:

   • If using the default main template: https://solutions-reference.s3.amazonaws.com/qnabot-on-aws/latest/qnabot-on-aws-main.template

   • If using the VPC template: https://solutions-reference.s3.amazonaws.com/qnabot-on-aws/latest/qnabot-on-aws-vpc.template

4. Under Parameters, review the parameters for the template and modify them as necessary. Refer to Step 1: Launch the stack for details about the parameters.

5. Choose Next.

6. On the Configure stack options page, choose Next.

7. On the Review page, review and confirm the settings. Be sure to check the box acknowledging that the template might create AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) resources.

8. Choose View change set and verify the changes.

9. Choose Update stack to deploy the stack.

Note

For those Upgrading from v5.4.X

If you are upgrading from a deployment with LLMApi set to SAGEMAKER then set this value to DISABLED before upgrading. After upgrading, return this value back to SAGEMAKER.

You can view the status of the stack in the AWS CloudFormation console in the Status column. You should receive a UPDATE_COMPLETE status in approximately 30 minutes.

Note

If you have previously deployed the solution but do not want to perform in-place upgrade, see the Update or migrate section in the GitHub repository. Also, use that README.md file if you’ve encountered issues during in-place upgrade or in case of a breaking change, which does not allow you to upgrade in-place.
