# UUPS Upgradeable

*An upgradeability mechanism designed for UUPS proxies. The functions included here can perform an upgrade of an {ERC1967Proxy}, when this contract is set as the implementation behind such a proxy. A security mechanism ensures that an upgrade does not turn off upgradeability accidentally, although this risk is reinstated if the upgrade retains upgradeability but removes the security mechanism, e.g. by replacing `UUPSUpgradeable` with a custom implementation of upgrades. The {\_authorizeUpgrade} function must be overridden to include access restriction to the upgrade mechanism. Available since v4.1.*

## Methods

### upgradeTo

```solidity
function upgradeTo(address newImplementation) external nonpayable
```

*Upgrade the implementation of the proxy to `newImplementation`. Calls {\_authorizeUpgrade}. Emits an {Upgraded} event.*

#### Parameters

| Name              | Type    | Description |
| ----------------- | ------- | ----------- |
| newImplementation | address | undefined   |

### upgradeToAndCall

```solidity
function upgradeToAndCall(address newImplementation, bytes data) external payable
```

*Upgrade the implementation of the proxy to `newImplementation`, and subsequently execute the function call encoded in `data`. Calls {\_authorizeUpgrade}. Emits an {Upgraded} event.*

#### Parameters

| Name              | Type    | Description |
| ----------------- | ------- | ----------- |
| newImplementation | address | undefined   |
| data              | bytes   | undefined   |

## Events

### AdminChanged

```solidity
event AdminChanged(address previousAdmin, address newAdmin)
```

#### Parameters

| Name          | Type    | Description |
| ------------- | ------- | ----------- |
| previousAdmin | address | undefined   |
| newAdmin      | address | undefined   |

### BeaconUpgraded

```solidity
event BeaconUpgraded(address indexed beacon)
```

#### Parameters

| Name             | Type    | Description |
| ---------------- | ------- | ----------- |
| beacon `indexed` | address | undefined   |

### Upgraded

```solidity
event Upgraded(address indexed implementation)
```

#### Parameters
