# Installation and Upgrade

The most reliable way to use our libraries in your .NET application or library is to use NuGet.org as the *only* official source. Each and every single library, application that provides extension support, or an application-library hybrid, can be installed as a NuGet package.

{% step %}

### <mark style="color:$primary;">Installation</mark>

To install our library to your .NET project, click on the below page to get started.

{% content-ref url="/pages/cvh5KlHWfapRWy1ywjaI" %}
[Installation](/aptivi/csharp-libraries/installation-and-upgrade/installation.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### <mark style="color:$primary;">Upgrade</mark>

To upgrade our library in your .NET project to a newer version, click on the below page.

{% content-ref url="/pages/mGajpnB06nRWxyQKJM4b" %}
[Upgrade](/aptivi/csharp-libraries/installation-and-upgrade/upgrade.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### <mark style="color:$primary;">Attestation</mark>

It's a good practice to verify that your download is not corrupt using the methods outlined in the below page.

{% content-ref url="/pages/3O6V545Mpcz3Xn7biMai" %}
[Attestations](/aptivi/csharp-libraries/attestations.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

{% hint style="info" %}
This requires an active Internet connection to proceed. If you'd like to use your local NuGet feed, upload the appropriate packages to your feed first so that all machines that use your feed will be able to download packages from that feed. Consult [this page](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/nuget/hosting-packages/overview) for more information on how to host our libraries in your feed.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://aptivi.gitbook.io/aptivi/csharp-libraries/installation-and-upgrade.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
