**1. What is the problem? Be very detailed.**  
When I install ODK-Aggregate-v2.0.5-macOS on my macbook, when I get to the select Platform Option step it only shows MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQL Server -- it does not show Google App Engine as an option so I can not continue with my install

Then I realized the documentation for this link is out of date  
[https://docs.opendatakit.org/collect-connect-aggregate/](https://docs.opendatakit.org/collect-connect-aggregate/)

**2. What app or server are you using and on what device and operating system? Include version numbers.**  
ODK-Aggregate-v2.0.5-macOS  
2017 Macbook Air laptop with MacOS High Sierra version 10.13.4

**3. What you have you tried to fix the problem?**  
I download an older version of the ODK Aggregate and it did offer the Google App Engine option which I then realized that ODK version 2 will no longer offer GAE as an option

**4. What steps can we take to reproduce the problem?**

**5. Anything else we should know or have? If you have a test form or screenshots or logs, attach below.**

ODK Aggregate v2 and greater does not support App Engine. We put this in the documentation at [https://docs.opendatakit.org/aggregate-app-engine-legacy](https://docs.opendatakit.org/aggregate-app-engine-legacy) and you can find out the reasoning at [Upcoming changes to Aggregate](https://forum.getodk.org/t/upcoming-changes-to-aggregate/17582).

Thanks Yanokwa, I see the notice about version 2 not working on that Google App Engine link which should be clear for future new users, I had not seen that page before, thanks!
