# Update the Snyk Broker client

Snyk regularly releases updated versions of the Broker client in order to provide new features, bug fixes, and more. Snyk recommends that you install the updated version of your Broker client regularly to take advantage of bug fixes and new features.

The full list of versions with release notes is available on [Snyk Broker GitHub](https://github.com/snyk/broker/releases). Snyk encourages you to [subscribe to the RSS feed](https://github.com/snyk/broker/releases.atom) for that page to receive information about versions as they are released. The Docker images are released more slowly than the GitHub releases. The `docker pull` command always pulls the most recent image.

Update the Broker client in the same way you installed it initially. Stopping and starting your Broker by itself will not update the version of Broker client that is used

## Updating using the Docker method

Run `docker pull snyk/broker:<brokerClienttype>` to pull the latest version of that tag, then stop and start your Broker client or clients.

## Updating using the Helm method

The specifics will be determined by how you initially installed and ran your Snyk Broker, but running a Helm upgrade\` instead of Helm install\` with the same arguments will pull the latest chart, unless you target a specific chart version. Ensure that you still supply the correct values for your Broker, either by using the `--set <variable>:<value>` commands, or by using a YAML file.

The Helm Chart targets the latest version of the applicable Broker client and has `imagePullPolicy: Always`, so upgrading to the latest chart will reinitialize the pod and pull the latest version of the client.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.snyk.io/platform-administration/snyk-broker/update-the-snyk-broker-client.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
