  Yes, I would just run

  npm update

  or

  yarn upgrade

  without changing version if you have specified version range inside

  package.json
  

  
  

  If you did not specify range such as

  ^3.2.2

  (notice the caret) then yes, you have to change the version on your own inside

  package.json

  👍 You can also run

  yarn add payload@latest

  or

  npm install payload@latest

  to have your package.json auto-update to the latest stable release

  @Eustachio I'd also recommend looking through the Release notes to look for anything of note between your current version and latest
