# Updater (*Updater*) ## Overview This describes the API for searching and applying updates to the Plex Media Server. Updates to the status can be observed via the Event API. ### Available Operations * [GetUpdateStatus](#getupdatestatus) - Querying status of updates * [CheckForUpdates](#checkforupdates) - Checking for updates * [ApplyUpdates](#applyupdates) - Apply Updates ## GetUpdateStatus Querying status of updates ### Example Usage ```csharp using PlexAPI; using PlexAPI.Models.Components; var sdk = new PlexAPISDK(security: new Models.Components.Security() { AccessToken = "", }); var res = await sdk.Updater.GetUpdateStatusAsync(); // handle response ``` ### Response **[GetUpdateStatusResponse](../../Models/Requests/GetUpdateStatusResponse.md)** ## CheckForUpdates Checking for updates ### Example Usage ```csharp using PlexAPI; using PlexAPI.Models.Components; using PlexAPI.Models.Requests; var sdk = new PlexAPISDK(security: new Models.Components.Security() { AccessToken = "", }); var res = await sdk.Updater.CheckForUpdatesAsync(download: Download.One); // handle response ``` ### Parameters | Parameter | Type | Required | Description | | ----------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- | | `Download` | [Download](../../Models/Requests/Download.md) | :heavy_minus_sign: | Indicate that you want to start download any updates found. | ### Response **[CheckForUpdatesResponse](../../Models/Requests/CheckForUpdatesResponse.md)** ## ApplyUpdates Note that these two parameters are effectively mutually exclusive. The `tonight` parameter takes precedence and `skip` will be ignored if `tonight` is also passed ### Example Usage ```csharp using PlexAPI; using PlexAPI.Models.Components; using PlexAPI.Models.Requests; var sdk = new PlexAPISDK(security: new Models.Components.Security() { AccessToken = "", }); var res = await sdk.Updater.ApplyUpdatesAsync( tonight: Tonight.One, skip: Skip.Zero); // handle response ``` ### Parameters | Parameter | Type | Required | Description | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `Tonight` | [Tonight](../../Models/Requests/Tonight.md) | :heavy_minus_sign: | Indicate that you want the update to run during the next Butler execution.

The entry for this version will have the `state` set to `skipped`. | ### Response **[ApplyUpdatesResponse](../../Models/Requests/ApplyUpdatesResponse.md)**
