Hi All,

We are currently running a Docker-based Business Central sandbox (for example, BC 26) using BcContainerHelper.

Now we would like to move to the next major version (e.g., BC 27).

I would like to understand:

Is there a way to directly upgrade the existing Docker container to the new version?
Can we reuse the existing database and perform a data upgrade?
What is the recommended approach for upgrading a Docker sandbox used for development?
Are there any best practices to avoid recreating the entire environment from scratch?

Our goal is to preserve the database and perform the proper data upgrade instead of deleting and recreating the container.

If anyone has done this recently, could you please share the recommended steps or scripts?

Thanks in advance!
