**Here are the major changes:**
- Put roles' permissions in database
- Providers connection (Facebook, GitHub, ...)
<br>
::: tip
Feel free to [join us on Slack](http://slack.strapi.io) and ask questions about the migration process.
:::
<br>
## Getting started
Install Strapi `alpha.9` globally on your computer. To do so run `npm install strapi@3.0.0-alpha.9 -g`.
When it's done, generate a new empty project `strapi new myNewProject` (don't pay attention to the database configuration).
<br>
## Configurations
You will have to update just 2 files: `package.json` and `request.json`
- Edit the Strapi's dependencies version: (move Strapi's dependencies to `3.0.0-alpha.9` version) in `package.json` file
```json
{
"dependencies": {
"lodash": "4.x.x",
"strapi": "3.0.0-alpha.9",
"strapi-mongoose": "3.0.0-alpha.9"
}
}
```
- Edit the `session.enabled` settings to `true` in each environment file: `/configs/environments/***/request.json`
```json
{
"session": {
"enabled": true
}
}
```
<br>
## Update the Admin
Delete your old admin folder and replace it by the new one.
<br>
## Update the Plugins
Copy this file `/plugins/users-permissions/config/jwt.json` **from your old project** and paste it in the corresponding one in your new project.
Copy the fields and relations you had in your `/plugins/users-permissions/models/User.settings.json` and `/plugins/users-permissions/config/jwt.json` file in the new one.
Then, delete your old `plugins` folder and replace it by the new one.
<br>
## ⚠️ Roles update
Roles are now stored in your database. You will have to re-create and configure them via the admin dashboard.
<br>
## ⚠️ User collection/table name has changed
If you have an existing set of users in your database you will have to rename the collection/table from `user` to `users-permissions_user`.
Then update all your users by changing the old role id by the new one which is in `users-permissions_role` collection/table.
That's all, you have now upgraded to Strapi `alpha.9`.
