II. SaaS and Private Deployment Version Notes​

  • The SaaS Public Cloud Version has been fully upgraded to V2
  • Private deployment images have also been released and can be directly pulled and deployed
  • It is recommended that new users deploy the V2 version first for the best experience

III. Upgrade Plan for Old Version (V1) Private Deployment Users​

Due to major changes in the underlying architecture/database, V1 cannot be upgraded in place to V2. Instead, it must be done by deploying V2 anew and migrating data.

Upgrade Restrictions​

  1. Excel/CSV files are not supported for automatic migration; they need to be manually re-uploaded or configured in the V2 environment.
  2. Report content is not supported for automatic migration.
  3. Integration configurations for Enterprise WeChat and WPS collaboration will not be automatically migrated to V2. After upgrading, these need to be reconfigured in the new environment. Please record the relevant configuration information in advance.

Upgrade Steps​

  1. First, upgrade V1 to the latest version to support the data export function

    • Modify the existing Docker Compose configuration and update the image to the 20251230 TAG version. 
      registry.cn-shanghai.aliyuncs.com/datamini/asktable-all-in-one:20251230
    • Pull the new image and restart the service (pull → down → up)

  2. Deploy a new V2 environment:

    • You need to deploy a brand-new AskTable V2. For detailed operations, please refer to the V2 Deployment Documentation
    • Notes:
      1. If you run both V1 and V2 on the same machine, make sure to ensure that container names, port numbers, and other configuration items do not conflict (for example, you can modify docker-compose.yml file's container_name, ports, etc.), to avoid service startup failures.
      2. In the V2 environment, the first registered user will automatically become the super administrator. To ensure smooth data migration, please make sure that this user's username does not match any user in the V1 environment (including the super administrator).

  3. Export project data in the V1 environment:

    • Go to the System Management page.
    export
    • Use the Data Export Function to export data sources, conversations, projects, etc., as JSON files
    export

  4. Import data into the V2 environment:

    • ⚠️ Register an admin account on the AskTable login page and log in for the first time to migrate data from the old version (only valid after the first deployment and login).
    • Use the Data Import Function in V2 to select the JSON file from the previous step and complete the data migration
import
  1. If necessary, migrate the local AskTable domain name/IP or adjust other related configurations
