Updating the drupal modules in Apigee developer portal

Hi,

As per https://pantheon.io/docs/upstream-updates/, we have applied the upstream updates via site dashboard that has been displayed in the status bar.

After applying the upstream updates, we could still see security updates and modules that has to be updated in the developer portal.

So should I manually upgrade the modules via drush or user interface? What does pantheon upstream updates does?

Thanks,

Hi @Anusha Chowdary,

The Pantheon upstreams will only update modules that come with the devportal profile. This will not include additional modules that have been installed. The upstream profile may not update every module.

Security updates are generally required, but non-security updates are optional. I've updated my devportal to the latest upstream (17.12.20.00), and my pantheon status page shows:

```

The following project(s) have updates available:

NameExistingCandidateStatus
Apache Solr framework (apachesolr)7.x-1.87.x-1.9Update available
Commerce (commerce)7.x-1.137.x-1.14Update available
Environment indicator (environment_indicator)7.x-2.87.x-2.9Update available
Field Group (field_group)7.x-1.57.x-1.6Update available
File Entity (file_entity)7.x-2.47.x-2.12Update available
Google Analytics (google_analytics)7.x-2.37.x-2.4Update available
Internationalization (i18n)7.x-1.187.x-1.22Update available
LDAP Servers (ldap)7.x-2.27.x-2.3Update available
Legal (legal)7.x-1.77.x-1.10Update available
'me' Aliases (me)7.x-1.37.x-1.4Update available

Media: YouTube (media_youtube)7.x-3.57.x-3.6Update available
Redis (redis)7.x-3.157.x-3.17Update available
Services Views (services_views)7.x-1.27.x-1.3Update available
Views (views)7.x-3.177.x-3.18Update available
Webform (webform)7.x-4.157.x-4.16Update available
WYSIWYG Filter (wysiwyg_filter)7.x-1.6-rc37.x-1.6-rc9Update available
Bootstrap (bootstrap)7.x-3.157.x-3.16Update available

```

So in this case, while some updates are available, they are not required security updates. If you're still missing security updates, I would do those via drush. Does that help?
