=== Known issues

.Current stack version is not in the list of {agent} versions in {kib} {fleet} UI
[%collapsible]
====
*Details*
On the {fleet} UI in {kib}:
* When adding a new {agent}, the user interface shows a previous version instead of the current version.
* When you attempt an upgrade, the modal window shows an earlier version as the latest version.
*Impact* +
You can use the following steps as a workaround:
*When upgrading {agent} currently on versions 8.10.4 or earlier (simpler)*
. Open the {fleet} UI. Under the *Agents* tab select *Upgrade agent* from the actions menu. The version field in the *Upgrade agent* UI allows you to enter any version.
. Enter `8.11.0` or whichever version you want to upgrade the {agents} to. Do not choose a version later than the version of {kib} or {fleet-server} that you're running.
*When upgrading {agent} currently on any version (more complex, requires API)*
. Open {kib} and navigate to *Management -> Dev Tools*.
. Choose one of the API requests below and submit it through the console. Each of the requests uses version `8.11.0` as an example, but this can be changed to any available version.
+
* To upgrade a single {agent} to any version, run:
+
[source,console]
----
POST kbn:/api/fleet/agents/<Elastic Agent ID>/upgrade
{"version":"8.11.0"}
----
+
* To upgrade a set of {agents} based on a known set of agent IDs, run:
+
[source,console]
----
POST kbn:/api/fleet/agents/bulk_upgrade
{
"version":"8.11.0",
"agents":["<Elastic Agent ID>","<Another Elastic Agent ID>"],
"start_time":"2023-11-10T09:41:39.850Z"
}
----
* To upgrade a set of {agents} running a specific policy, and below a specific version (for example, `8.11.0`), run:
+
[source,console]
----
POST kbn:/api/fleet/agents/bulk_upgrade
{
"agents": "fleet-agents.policy_id:<Elastic Fleet Policy ID> and fleet-agents.agent.version<<VERSION>",
"version": "8.11.0"
}
----
+
[source,console]
----
POST kbn:/api/fleet/agents/bulk_upgrade
{
"agents": "fleet-agents.policy_id:uuid1-uuid2-uuid3-uuid4 and fleet-agents.agent.version<8.11.0",
"version": "8.11.0"
}
----
TIP: To find the ID for any {agent}, open the **Agents** tab in {fleet} and select **View agent** from the **Actions** menu. The agent ID and other details are shown.
To learn more about these requests, refer to the <<fleet-api-docs,{fleet} API documentation>>.
