Guides · Get help and check changes · [How it works](https://www.mensara.ai/how-it-works) A released feature is available only when the required software, configuration, permissions and installed app are present in your Mind. A newer release announcement does not prove your workspace has upgraded. This page helps you check applicability before following a guide and understand the changes relevant to these instructions. [Page as Markdown](https://www.mensara.ai/how-it-works/versions-and-changes.md) ## Find the installed version Open **Settings** in your Mind’s Portal. Its **About** footer shows the Portal’s Mensara version. Have the authorised owner or operator confirm the matching Core release when a procedure depends on it. App versions are separate: inspect the installed bundle, not only the latest store card. The Portal’s **Connection status** includes **Version supported**. A pass there establishes that connection’s compatibility check; it does not prove every optional app or feature is enabled. ## Use the requirement on the relevant guide For example, [team Views](https://www.mensara.ai/how-it-works/build-a-team-view) require Core 0.20.11 and Portal 0.3.47 or later. [Telegram capture](https://www.mensara.ai/how-it-works/connect-telegram) requires compatible Telegram connection support and the selected sensor. Network also depends on owner permission, workspace enablement and an accepted peer connection. Compare the requirement with your actual installation. When a required control is absent, first check role, delegation and feature enablement. An absent button is not proof that your data is missing or that another person has the same view. ## Changes in the release used by these guides Mensara 0.20.11 pairs Core with Portal 0.3.47. It adds local, reviewed Views over saved records, with viewer-scoped reads and a View-building skill. It also improves search and query behaviour, history presentation and the handling of a pending Network invitation lookup. Search and query results can include a matched passage and date. Open the source to check the claim rather than treating a result excerpt as the whole record. Saved history preferences guide answer form; they do not authorise actions or widen access. Earlier 0.20.10 installations remain a distinct compatibility case, and some app descriptions in these guides may match an earlier app version. A newer app version being published does not mean it is installed in your Mind, so check the version of the installed app. ## Upgrade through the supported owner route Before an upgrade, inspect release notes for the affected job, back up the Mind and keep a current Recovery Kit. Have the authorised operator use the supported upgrade process for that environment. Do not edit version files or install a source checkout to make a missing feature appear. After the upgrade, check the actual version, a harmless read, important permissions and any affected scheduled job. Record a useful output from the normal route. Installation success alone does not establish that a scheduled model or external service ran. ## If the guide and interface disagree Keep the installed versions, role, relevant app and the exact difference. Follow [help by symptom](https://www.mensara.ai/how-it-works/questions) and use the supported handoff rather than guessing a replacement call. A procedure can explain a refused or unavailable route without claiming that positive task was completed. ## Related - [Build and publish a team View](https://www.mensara.ai/how-it-works/build-a-team-view) - [Choose an app, sensor or connector for your Mind](https://www.mensara.ai/how-it-works/apps-sensors-connectors) - [Back up, recover and export your Mind](https://www.mensara.ai/how-it-works/backup-restore-ownership) - [Find help by what went wrong](https://www.mensara.ai/how-it-works/questions) Previous page: [Recover pending, failed or interrupted work](https://www.mensara.ai/how-it-works/interrupted-work) Next page: [Choose an app, sensor or connector for your Mind](https://www.mensara.ai/how-it-works/apps-sensors-connectors) An installed app does a defined job inside your Mind.
