Upgrade Process

The Telepresence CLI will periodically check for new versions and notify you when an upgrade is available. Running the same commands used for installation will replace your current binary with the latest version.

Before upgrading your CLI, you must stop any live Telepresence processes by issuing telepresence quit -s (or telepresence quit -ur if your current version is less than 2.8.0).

# 1. Download the latest binary (~95 MB):
sudo curl -fL https://app.getambassador.io/download/tel2oss/releases/download/v2.20.0/telepresence-linux-amd64 -o /usr/local/bin/telepresence

# 2. Make the binary executable:
sudo chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/telepresence

The Telepresence CLI contains an embedded Helm chart. See Install/Uninstall the Traffic Manager if you want to also upgrade the Traffic Manager in your cluster.
