Not able to use a different `from` account for upgrades.upgradeProxy

According to the documentation, one should be able to upgrade a Proxy contract to a new logic contract via:

  const newProxy = await upgrades.upgradeProxy(proxy.address, newMain, { deployer })

However, I’ve tried changing deployer to a different account, and the caller of the transaction is always the same. I’m using hardhat, not truffle.

Yes, for example in hardhat.config.js:

module.exports = {
  networks: {
    rinkeby: {
      from: '0x....',
    },
  },
};
