Migrating Footprints to the new publishing framework

If you use Footprints and if you are migrating your implementation from the deprecated publishing framework to the new publishing framework introduced in SDL Web 8, run a migration tool to ensure that the Footprints continue to work.

About this task

Procedure

  1. On your Content Manager server, navigate to %TRIDION_HOME%\bin\FootprintMigrationTool\.
  2. For each Publication Target that has Footprints associated with it, run FootprintsMigrationTool.exe.
  3. When prompted, supply the Content Manager URI of the Publication Target, and then the Content Manager URI of the Target Type that replaces it.
  4. Run the tool again as needed. The Footprints of multiple Publication Targets can be migrated to the same Target Type.
