Upgrade types

You can apply the following upgrade types:

• Major Upgrade: A new version of an existing package that contains significant differences to the previous package version. The original package must have been available on the Asset Store for more than a year. A major upgrade includes reviews that users left for the last major version of the package. You can also set the number of grace days. Any user who purchased the prerequisite package within that number of days before you created the Major Upgrade can get the upgrade package for free.

Note: To direct users to the latest version of a package, deprecate the earlier version from the Asset Store. Deprecated packages are only available to customers who have previously purchased or downloaded them.

• Lite Upgrade: Select a lite upgrade to offer a discount on an asset for users who have acquired a different asset.
