# Supported upgrade paths

You can upgrade to AM 8.1 from any AM 7.x or 8.x version.

If you're upgrading to AM 8.1 from an *unsupported* version of AM, you must upgrade to a supported version first, and then to AM 8.1.

Find information about supported versions in the [Ping Identity End of Life (EOL) Software Tracker](https://support.pingidentity.com/s/article/Ping-Identity-EOL-Tracker#pam).
