 ### **Feature Flag**
 This feature is controlled by the following flag:
 
-- **Feature flag:** `plugins.security.experimental.resource_sharing.enabled`
+- **Feature flag:** `plugins.security.resource_sharing.enabled`
 - **Default value:** `false`
 - **How to enable?** Set the flag to `true` in the opensearch configuration:
   ```yaml
-  plugins.security.experimental.resource_sharing.enabled: true
+  plugins.security.resource_sharing.enabled: true
   ```
+> **Upgrading from a version that used the experimental flag (breaking change)**
+>
+> Prior to graduation, these settings were named `plugins.security.experimental.resource_sharing.enabled` and `plugins.security.experimental.resource_sharing.protected_types`. The `experimental.` segment has been **removed with no fallback**, so the old keys no longer work. Before upgrading:
+> - **`opensearch.yml`:** rename the keys to the new names on every node. A node that still has an old `plugins.security.experimental.resource_sharing.*` key will **fail to start** (`unknown setting`).
+> - **Persistent cluster settings:** re-apply the setting under the new key after upgrading. On upgrade the old key is no longer recognized and is archived (`archived.plugins.security.experimental.resource_sharing.*`), so the feature reverts to its default (**disabled**) until you re-apply it.
+> - **During a rolling upgrade**, enforcement is inconsistent until all nodes are on the new version: the new key is rejected by not-yet-upgraded nodes and the old key by upgraded nodes. Plan for resource sharing to be effectively disabled in this window and re-apply the setting once the upgrade completes.
+
 ### **List protected types**
 
 The list of protected types are controlled through following opensearch setting
 
-- **Setting:** `plugins.security.experimental.resource_sharing.protected_types`
+- **Setting:** `plugins.security.resource_sharing.protected_types`
 - **Default value:** `[]`
 - **How to specify a type?** Add entries of existing types in the list:
   ```yaml
-  plugins.security.experimental.resource_sharing.protected_types: [sample-resource]
+  plugins.security.resource_sharing.protected_types: [sample-resource]
   ```
 NOTE: These types will be available on documentation website.
