# Check plugin for updates

`POST /api/plugin/{RepoName}/updates`

Check plugin `{RepoName}` for available updates by running `git fetch` in the plugin directory and checking for any unmerged commits. Also reports `privacyChanged` (the block `…/upgrade` would land differs materially from the accepted one, or nothing is accepted) and `reinstallPrivacyChanged` (the same for the block a Reinstall would land: the versions[] branch and pin for this FPP, fetched here as well when it is not the checked-out branch).

## Response `200`

Update check result

- object
