Check for Third-Party Library Updates

The Admin Console now automatically checks for any updates on your already imported third-party libraries and offers to apply these updates while your Admin Console is running.

Library Updates Available dashboard notification

You can apply the updates later from the Libraries list on the Third-Party Library page. A down arrow appears next to the libraries that have updates available. To apply the update, select the library and click the Advanced tab. In the Available Updates section you have a button to apply the update and a button to manually check for updates of the selected library.
