Project Dependencies Mass Update

The Project Dependencies Mass Update Tool is used for updating dependency packages and their runtime rules in multiple automation projects, stored locally or in source control repositories.

Note: Project Dependencies Mass Update Tool is available starting with Studio v2018.4.4.

The wizard can be accessed both from Studio Backstage view and command line. Please note that the Project Dependencies Mass Update Tool from Studio Backstage view cannot be used for removing dependencies from the project.

Note: Before using the Project Dependencies Mass Update Tool with TFS, make sure the projects you want to update are disconnected from TFS for the current user.

Please note that when using the Project Dependencies Mass Update Tool, you implicitly accept the license terms of each package version that you update.

It is recommended to save and close projects from Studio, before making changes to them using the Project Dependencies Mass Update Tool.
