In certain situations, you may need to manually run the `bench migrate` command for your site.

> **[Note]** This operation **does not create a backup** before running the migration. Proceed with caution and ensure you have a backup if required.

To run the migration:

1. Open your **Site** page.
2. Go to the **Migrations** tab.
3. Click **Trigger Migration**.
4. Select **In-Place Migrate Site** as the migration type.

Once triggered, that will run the equivalent of the `bench migrate` command on your site.
