Upgrading the API Server Role

The API Server Role, running as part of your Web site, is called "API in-process" as of SDL Web 8. You can upgrade your Server Role, or you can migrate to the new API RESTful Server Role, which runs API functionality as a microservice. This topic explains only how you upgrade your existing Server Role; if you want to migrate to the API RESTful version, uninstall your old API Server Role and follow the installation instructions for API RESTful.
