I want to transfer about 1000 posts from our old Stack Overflow Enterprise instance into Discourse. Has anyone migrated Stack Overflow data into Discourse? Is there a plugin or repo with scripts that could help facilitate this?

Hey so I’m looking to do a similar thing so I’ll wait for a more informed answer but I did find this: script/import_scripts/stack_overflow.rb main # frozen_string_literal: true # cf. https://github.com/rails-sqlserver/tiny_tds#install require "tiny_tds" require_relative "base" class ImportScripts::StackOverflow < ImportScripts::Base BATCH_SIZE = 1000 def initialize super @client = TinyTds::Client.new( host: ENV["DB_HOST"], username: ENV["DB_USERNAME"], password: ENV["DB_PASSWORD"], database: ENV["DB_NAME"], ) end This file has been truncated. show original This seems to suggest there is a way, would be great to get some comment on how to use it.

Not sure how far along you got with the above, but what I ended up doing was just using the Stack Overflow and Discourse APIs. Pulled the posts/answers I wanted from the Stack Overflow API, did some data processing/formatting and then used the Discourse API to create new posts based off the data.

Sure! As soon as I finish our migration, I’ll make sure to come back and post a python script that streamlines the Stack Overflow Post to Discourse Post migration. Should be here in a couple of weeks!

[תמונה] Hector: Pulled the posts/answers I wanted from the Stack Overflow API I have a script I use to download posts from public Stack Overflow/Exchange to post on my Jekyll blog: https://github.com/jericson/se2jekyll.rb I considered using the Discourse API to post them to my forum, but I don’t have so many that copy-and-paste doesn’t work just as well. With a thousand or so posts, automating that steps is key! Good luck.

Any plans to share your code? That would be super handy to many people I’m sure.
