{% hint style="info" %}
**Official Release**\
The official release of Daylite is has been thoroughly tested and ready for public use. The Official Release channel is the default setting and is recommended for anyone using Daylite in all circumstances. The official release is the only release version fully supported by customer support and includes release notes.<br>

**Beta**\
The beta release contains early access to bug fixes and new features. Daylite beta is not recommended for anyone using Daylite on production unless advised by customer support. Beta builds are less stable than the official releases, and the functionality may change without notice. May not have release notes. **We strongly recommend using the official release channel** unless advised by customer support or if you're in an environment that can accept less stable releases.<br>

## 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.daylite.app/help/center/install-uninstall-and-update/update-settings.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`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.
