# Reapply resource instructions to existing agent instances on upgrade
|
|
|
|
## Description
|
|
|
|
Static instructions stored as an app resource are copied onto an instance only when you call `SetInstructions`. Shipping a new `Instructions.txt` in version 2.0 does not update agents created under 1.0. Models change the resource and assume running instances pick it up.
|
|
|
|
## Best Practice
|
|
|
|
In the upgrade codeunit, find existing instances of your metadata provider and call `SetInstructions` again with `NavApp.GetResourceAsText`. Guard with an upgrade tag so the rewrite runs once per version that changes the file.
|
|
|
|
See sample: [`reapply-resource-instructions-on-upgrade.good.al`](reapply-resource-instructions-on-upgrade.good.al).
|
|
|
|
## Anti Pattern
|
|
|
|
Editing only the resource file, or calling `SetInstructions` solely from the first-time setup path. Detection signal: instruction resource in `resourceFolders` with no upgrade procedure that re-applies it.
|
|
|
|
See sample: [`reapply-resource-instructions-on-upgrade.bad.al`](reapply-resource-instructions-on-upgrade.bad.al).
