&lt;br /&gt;
Migration guide will be very useful to apply the upgrade. Here is the link. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href="https://forum.appian.com/suite/tempo/records/type/software/view/all"&gt;forum.appian.com/.../all&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And also would like to know , are you going with Total Migration( All the processes, forms and other components are migrated to the newest version).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks,&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As per my understanding, you should consider the following factors while performing the Appian package migration from 17.2 to 18.2:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Go through the release notes of 17.3, 17.4, 18.1 &amp;amp; 18.2 and have a look on the deprecated &amp;amp; removed features/functions/smart services.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;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.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Once after the upgrade, have couple of round of End-to-End testing of every single&amp;nbsp;application in 18.2 environment to make sure that the applications are not impacted.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hope this will help.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
