# Updating Mods
There are two ways you can check for updates:
### Automatic
If your team uses Mod Deployments, PixieBrix automatically checks every 5 minutes for mod deployments your team has updated or additional mods you've been assigned.
### Manual
Alternatively, you can manually check for updates by opening the PixieBrix Extension Console.
* Navigate to the Admin Console: [https://app.pixiebrix.com](https://app.pixiebrix.com/)
* Click “Open Browser Extension”
When a mod you have installed has an update available, an Update button will appear on the Mods page’s entry for that mod.
Find the entry for the mod, and click Update. PixieBrix will guide you through reactivation because the mod’s settings may have changed. Once you’ve completed reactivation, the mod will have been updated to the latest version.

## 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://docs.pixiebrix.com/activating-mods/updating-mods.md?ask=&goal=
```
`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.
