How do I link new artboards from an Illustrator file from which I've already linked artboards?

Community Beginner ,

I originally linked a 19-artboard Illustrator CC file to my Indesign CC file, to make a suite of rack cards for displaying different services our firm offers.

Since then I've reassigned the roles of two of the illustrated characters in our brand, and added two more, new characters in the same file as artboards 20 and 21.

When I go to relink the file it will not let me link pages 20 and 21, saying no more than 19 pages exist in the file.

Is there a way to force Indesign to recognize that more pages have been added, while preserving the existing placement/scaling of my illustrations?

I just ran a test where I added two artboards to an .ai file that had 3 existing artboards. After updating the link, Indesign recognizes the updated artboards. Use the "rePlace" script to change which page you want to update.
