# Frequently Asked Questions

{% hint style="warning" %}
**open-appsec Docker SWAG integration is discontinued and not being actively maintained anymore.**\
\
Related artifacts (containers, helm charts, etc.) have been either removed already or might be removed at any time.

If you currently still use any of these, we strongly recommend switching soon to one of our other supported integrations.\
\
If none of the supported integrations fit your setup, you can also compile the open-appsec code  yourself and integrate open-appsec with many other solutions.\
\
See <https://github.com/openappsec/openappsec> to get started.

#### **Question: How can I upgrade from an existing Docker SWAG deployment to using Docker SWAG integrated with open-appsec?**

Keeping your existing Docker SWAG configuration when deploying Docker SWAG with open-appsec is simple and straightforward:

**Moke sure to follow these important notes related to the deployment:**

* **Create a new folder** for the Docker SWAG with open-appsec deployment so that you can keep the original one as backup.
* **Copy your existing SWAG configuration** into **./swag-config** within that new folder.\
  The `docker-compose.yaml` by default mounts the config from the folder `./swag-config` on the docker host as a volume into `/config` inside the `swag-attachment` container.
* **Before deployment** of the `docker-compose.yaml` and `.env` file for the SWAG with open-appsec deployment:\
  \
  Make sure to configure all parameters which you had previously adjusted in the `docker-compose.yaml` file of your existing Docker SWAG deployment also within the `docker-compose.yaml` file or respectively in the `.env` file for the Docker SWAG with open-appsec deployment (e.g. env variables URL, VALIDATION, ...)

For the actual deployment follow the steps explained here:
