Features<\/code> blade. We’ll walk through the steps in this blog post below.<\/p>\nBenefits of upgrading from version 3.2 to 3.6<\/span><\/h3>\n
\nThe\u00a0following\u00a0are\u00a0the\u00a0new\u00a0features\u00a0included\u00a0in\u00a0version\u00a03.6:<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Changes from version 3.2<\/h3>\n
\n
\nAction required<\/h3>\n
For the upgrade to version 3.6, the database account endpoint suffix will be updated to the following format in your applications:<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<your_database_account_name>.mongo.cosmos.azure.com<\/pre>\n<\/div>\n
You need to replace the existing endpoint in your applications and drivers that connect with this database account. Only connections that are using the new endpoint will have access to the features in the MongoDB version 3.6.<\/strong> The previous endpoint should have the suffix .documents.azure.com<\/code>.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\nHow to upgrade my account on the Azure Portal<\/h3>\n
