# Upgrade the Regional Government Emergency Response and Monitoring solution
17+
18+
Perform the steps in this article to upgrade your existing installation of Regional Government Emergency Response and Monitoring solution to the latest version.
19+
20+
## Prerequisites
21+
22+
- Ensure that you have the Global Admin credentials and environment details where
23+
the Regional Government Emergency Response and Monitoring solution is deployed currently.
24+
25+
- Ensure all users are disconnected from your environment before you upgrade. You might have to plan the upgrade process at a time when there is minimal obstructions for your users.
26+
27+
- Ensure you have copied the Email contents to a Word file from the Send
28+
Invitation, Send Password Reset To Contact processes
29+
30+
## Step 1: Download the upgrade deployment package
31+
32+
Get the latest deployment package (.zip) from <https://aka.ms/rer-solution>. It's the same deployment package as the one you download during the fresh deployment step.
33+
34+
**IMPORTANT:** Before extracting the .zip file, ensure that you unblock it.
35+
36+
1. Right click the .zip file, select **Properties**.
37+
38+
2. In the properties dialog box, select **Unblock**, and then select **Apply**
39+
followed by **OK.**
40+
41+
After unblocking the file, extract the .zip file to see the following in the
42+
extracted folder:
43+
44+
On extracting the .zip file, you will see the following in the extracted folder:
45+
46+
|**Folder** |**Description** |
47+
|---------|---------|
48+
|**Package** | The folder contains the Package Deployer tool and the package that you will import later to set up the solution in your environment. |
49+
|**Power BI Template** | Contains the Power BI Report template file (.pbit) that you will use to configure reporting. More information: [Step 5: Configure and publish Power BI dashboard](#step-5-configure-and-publish-power-bi-dashboard) |
50+
|**SampleData** | Contains the sample master data files (.xlsx) that you can use to import sample data. |
51+
52+
## Step 2: Install the upgrade package
53+
54+
Install the upgrade package in the **same environment** where you have the
55+
existing solution installed. You can install the upgrade package in one of the following 3 ways just like you did when deploying the solution for the **first time**.
56+
57+
- Microsoft AppSource (for Power Apps US Govt customers only). See [Option A: Install the app from Microsoft AppSource (US Govt customers)](#option-a-install-the-app-from-microsoft-appsource-us-govt-customers) in the deployment topic
58+
59+
- Microsoft AppSource (for Power Apps commercial version customers). See [Option B: Install the app from Microsoft AppSource](#option-b-install-the-app-from-microsoft-appsource) in the deployment topic
60+
61+
- Deployment package that you downloaded earlier. See [Option C: Install the app from the deployment package](#option-c-install-the-app-from-the-deployment-package) in the deployment topic
62+
63+
## Step 3: Publish the latest Power BI dashboard
64+
65+
Use the .pbit file in the upgrade package to configure and publish the latest
66+
Power BI dashboard.
67+
68+
Steps to use the .pbit file are the same as the original deployment; make sure you use the same workspace to overwrite the existing Power BI dashboard if you want to preserver the Power BI report URL that is used for embedding it into Power Apps portal.
69+
70+
More information: [Step 5: Configure and publish Power BI
71+
dashboard](https://docs.microsoft.com/powerapps/sample-apps/regional-emergency-response/deploy#step-5-configure-and-publish-power-bi-dashboard)
72+
73+
## Step 4: Verify the Power BI report URL in your portal
74+
75+
This step is required only if your Power BI report URL has changed in the previous step owing to you publishing the dashboard in a new worksoaceVerify the **PowerBI Path** site setting in your portal and update the value
76+
with the latest Power BI report URL.
77+
78+
For detailed steps, see [Embed Power BI report in
79+
portal](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/sample-apps/regional-emergency-response/deploy#the-process-1)
80+
81+
Make sure to restart our portal for the changes to take effect. More
82+
information: [Restart the
83+
portal](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/sample-apps/regional-emergency-response/deploy#restart-the-portal)
84+
85+
## Step 5: Verify the Send Invitation and Send Password Reset To Contact processes
86+
87+
Verify that the **Send Invitation** and **Send Password Reset To Contact**
88+
processes are still valid, that is, they have an account in the **From** field
89+
that can send emails and the rest of the details are fine.
90+
91+
For details about how to fix these processes, see:
92+
93+
- [Step 10: Fix the Send Invitation
94+
process](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/sample-apps/regional-emergency-response/deploy#step-10-fix-the-send-invitation-process)
95+
96+
- [Step 11: Fix the Send Password Reset To Contact
97+
process](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/sample-apps/regional-emergency-response/deploy#step-11-fix-the-send-password-reset-to-contact-process)
98+
99+
## Step 6: Verify the Flow supply tracking flow is enabled
100+
101+
102+
This flow enables the frontline user to add supplies through the portal that
103+
gets saved in Common Data Service.
104+
105+
For details about how to fix these processes, see [Step 13: Verify the Flow
106+
supply tracking flow is
107+
enabled](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/sample-apps/regional-emergency-response/deploy#step-13-verify-the-flow-supply-tracking-flow-is-enabled).
108+
109+
## Step 7: Edit the 2 flows (check the recording)
110+
111+
- Verifying the credentials to connect to CDS and send email
112+
113+
- In the 2nd flow, we are Verifying the credentials to connect to CDS and send
114+
email and also fixing the Portal URL in the email body
115+
116+
After the flow is complete and next time Power BI report is refreshed (every 30
117+
mins as per our recommendation), you will see the historical data in your
118+
reports.
