# Rhdh Backstage Upgrade

> - Moves the @backstage/ dependency versions of a Backstage plugin, workspace, app, or the redhat-developer/rhdh monorepo forward to a chosen release, staying within what a Red Hat Developer Hub version ships: read backstage.json and package.json, pick the target from the RHDH compatibility matrix or an explicit version, run versions:bump and versions:migrate, preserve the repository's dependency range style, audit stale resolutions, work through release changelogs, and re-verify the repository. Use for "upgrade @backstage dependencies", "bump Backstage in rhdh", "versions:bump", "which Backstage version does RHDH 1.8 ship", moved package namespaces, or dependencies that are too old for the API they need.
