The upgrade.xml file

The upgrade.xml file defines the plug-in version. It also defines how to update a step or property when a plug-in is updated.

The upgrade.xml file contains the following elements:

<plugin-upgrade>: Identifies the XML schema that is used by the plug-in using the two XML name space attributes. See the example below for the values to use on the xmlsn and xmlsn:xsi attributes.
<migrate>: Defines changes to the plug-in. See Upgrading plug-ins for details.
