# Workspace Migration

## Description

When you upgrade your Designer to the latest LogicNets release, older projects and applications may not have access to the full functionality offered in the LogicNets Designer. LogicNets has developed a process that runs when you start up your Designer and verifies if all projects have access to the full range of functionality. The system allows you to convert all legacy projects to the latest version in a single step.

LogicNets recommends converting all development projects so you have access to the latest Designer features. If you are unsure about whether to convert your projects, please discuss this with your LogicNets Project Manager, or request help via LogicNets Support.

## Migrate Your Workspace

LogicNets runs the detection process automatically as part of Designer startup checks. For typical workspaces with a handful of projects/versions the process may take a few seconds. For larger workspaces the process may take between 5 and 15 seconds, but the timing depends on other network factors as well.

While the process is running, LogicNets displays a "processing bar". When the process is complete, the system lists which projects are using older versions and can be converted.

1. Click ***Convert*** and LogicNets will create copies of the listed projects in the current version format. You can then edit these projects in the LogicNets Designer using any of the most-recent features. Two of the more important features the conversion process gives you access to are: - *Search*: This allows you ot search for and locate on the graph any object, parameter, or node text. - *Export*: This allows you to easily share a project with a user in a separate Designer account.
2. If you click ***Cancel***, LogicNets will not convert the projects but the system will identify them the next time you open the Designer.

Note: Once LogicNets converts a legacy project it deletes the original and no backup (other than through the agreed backup policies in place per the client contract).

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://community-test.logicnets.com/release-9/platform-documentation/other-help-articles/workspace-migration.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
