Updating Lobster Bridge

There are two ways a Bridge can be updated.

On the Bridge system itself, where the update can be downloaded and installed and from the connected platform without the need to have access to the system the Bridge is running on.

Local on the Bridge system

Administration → Update Center

The bridge can be updated if the Bridge Version is different from the Platform Version. With the button images/download/thumbnails/212902172/image-2025-9-17_10-38-36-version-1-modificationdate-1758098315202-api-v2.png , the update is downloaded from the API Server and Bridge will restart and install the update.

Remote from the Platform

All configured Bridges can be updated remotely from the Platform. If the button is clicked, all bridges which version is lower then the current Platform version are updated to this version.

(You can also update one specific Bridge from the context menu of the Bridge configuration entry.)

All affected Bridges get the command to update themselves.

While processing all bridges (successfully or not) a dialog with the specific results is displayed, which bridges could be updated and which couldn't.
