Hi @ rohinip91 
 As per my understanding, you should consider the following factors while performing the Appian package migration from 17.2 to 18.2: 
 
 Go through the release notes of 17.3, 17.4, 18.1 & 18.2 and have a look on the deprecated & removed features/functions/smart services. 
 Make sure you are not using any one these deprecated / deleted features as in 17.2, and if so then you need to upgrade your code / configuration. 
 Once after the upgrade, have couple of round of End-to-End testing of every single application in 18.2 environment to make sure that the applications are not impacted. 
 
 Hope this will help.
