How Migration Works
Migrating your store data to or from Shop-Script with Cart2Cart is a streamlined process designed to ensure that all your entities, including products, customers, orders, and categories, are transferred securely. To begin the migration, you need to connect your store using the following method:
- Connection Bridge: This method is used for self-hosted platforms like Shop-Script. You will need to download the Connection Bridge files from the Cart2Cart setup wizard and upload them to your store's root directory via FTP/SFTP. This establishes a secure link between your Shop-Script store and the migration service, allowing for a direct and automated data transfer.
Once the connection is established, you can select the specific data entities you wish to move, choose from additional options such as preserving order IDs or migrating SEO metadata, and launch the migration. Your current store remains 100% active and functional throughout the entire procedure, ensuring no interruption to your business operations.
