Migrating ECL content
You can use Content Porter to migrate content related to the External Content Library (ECL) feature, specifically stub Components and stub Schemas.
General requirements
To use Content Porter for ECL migration, ensure the following are the same on both the source and destination Content Manager instances:
- ECL configuration, including the same mount point
- WebDAV URL of the source and destination stub folders, which enables Content Porter to import items to the proper location
The export process gives you the option to export only stub Components and not stub Schemas. This enables you to associate exported stub Components with different stub Schemas on the destination Content Manager. The next sections summarize the migration processes for both with and without stub Schemas.
