We have our existing data in MySql database. We have decided to use contentful for static content like articles.
I am not able to find much documentation on how can Contentful help me moving my existing articles in MySql to contentful.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.
Hi @pkeshari ,
I think the most suitable tools for migrating from MySQL to Contentful would be:
- Contentful CLI for scripting migration:
Scripting migrations with the Contentful CLI | Contentful
With this you would be able to create Content-types that matches your MySQL Tables (1 table = 1 content-type, 1 column = 1 field) in an automatic way; - After that you could use our import/export CLI:
Importing and exporting content with the Contentful CLI | Contentful
To, instead, migrate the data from those tables to the newly created Content-types
