Migrating source artifacts

IBM Integration Designer source artifact migration refers to the process of importing a project interchange (PI) created in an older version of WebSphere Integration Developer into a newer version of IBM Integration Designer.

Before you migrate the source artifacts, review the information in Migrating a process instance, Migrating XML maps, Migrating generated Java EE staging projects, and Migrating server runtime targets.

To migrate WebSphere Integration Developer source artifacts, follow these steps:

Procedure

1. Export the artifacts as integration modules by selecting File > Export > Business Integration > Integration modules and libraries.

2. From the Export Integration Modules and Libraries window, select the option Project interchange for sharing between workspaces and select the projects to export. Click Next.

3. From this window, specify the file names for each archive and the target directory. Click Finish.
4. Import the archive file generated in the previous steps as a project interchange file. To import a project interchange file, select File > Import > Other > Project Interchange and click Next.

5. Click Browse to select the archive file and click Finish. By default, the projects are set to build automatically. Therefore, after the project interchange is imported, the build, including the validation, begins automatically.

6. The Workspace Migration wizard opens after the project interchange file is imported.

7. After the migration process ends, you should see a window indicating that the migration validation has completed successfully.

What to do next

To see more details about the validation, go to the Migration Results view.
