If your team is using an older version of AGrid, you may be missing powerful new enhancements—smarter filtering, faster load times, multi-sorting, improved UI, Kanban view, embedded charts, and several admin-level configuration upgrades. Fortunately, upgrading AGrid from AppExchange is quick, safe, and fully backward compatible.

Here’s a simple guide to help you get the latest AGrid experience.

Why Upgrade AGrid?

Staying updated ensures you always benefit from:

  • New features, performance improvements, and compatibility updates that enhance filtering, editing, related lists, visualizations, and overall usability.
  • Better alignment with Salesforce seasonal releases, ensuring smooth performance after each Salesforce upgrade.
  • Security and stability enhancements included in every package update.

How to Upgrade AGrid from AppExchange

Upgrading simply means installing the latest version over your existing one — Salesforce automatically recognizes the package and updates it without impacting your configuration.

Recommended Upgrade Flow

Follow this process to ensure a smooth and controlled upgrade across environments:

  1. Verify Current Version
  1. Upgrade in Sandbox Using “Try It”
  1. Run a Sandbox Smoke Test
  1. Update Configuration in Sandbox (If Needed)
  1. Plan the Production Upgrade
  1. Upgrade in Production Using “Get It Now”
  1. Run a Production Smoke Test
  1. Apply Configuration Updates in Production (If Needed)

Step-by-Step Upgrade Instructions

  1. Open the AGrid AppExchange Listing: Log in to Salesforce AppExchange using the same org where AGrid is currently installed.
  1. Click “Get It Now”: Select whether you're installing it into Production or Sandbox.
    (Testing in Sandbox is optional but recommended for large or heavily customized orgs.)
  1. Review Package Details: You’ll see your current version and the new version being installed. Click Continue to proceed.
  1. Choose the Security Access Level: Pick one of the available access options—Admins Only, All Users, or Specific Profiles—and continue with your preferred access setting.
  1. Install / Upgrade the Package: Click Install or Upgrade. Salesforce handles everything:
    • Your AGrid configurations remain intact
    • All grids, filters, views, and rules stay untouched
    • New features become available immediately
    • The process typically completes within a couple of minutes.
  1. Do a Quick Post-Upgrade Check. Once upgraded:
    • Open any existing AGrid configuration
    • Review the settings tab for any new toggles or enhancements
    • Load one or two grids to confirm data rendering looks normal

That’s all — your org is ready with the latest AGrid experience.

Does Upgrading Affect Existing Users?

No. Your existing setup — including column preferences, related lists, conditional formatting, user preferences, and all configuration groups — remains exactly as it was.
The upgrade only adds new features and behind-the-scenes enhancements.

Final Thoughts

Upgrading AGrid ensures you’re always using the most powerful, stable, and modern version of our Salesforce grid experience. The process is quick, safe, and designed to preserve every configuration you’ve already built.
