The company retains ownership of the data their employees post in Workplace, and have mechanisms to export that information and manage its community in ways that are not available on Facebook or Workplace Standard.
So I assume it’s possible, we’ll have the Premium setup, but no idea what the format looks like or if it’d be possible to import into Discourse.
I am not aware an importer for Workplace now, but if they will indeed let you export your data, I can write an importer for it.
Please see Redirecting… for some basic information on imports. As I point out there, if you are going to use discourse.org hosting, they may be willing to import your data as part of their support, so you should be in touch with them as well.
In addition to the other questions at the link above, I will need at least a sample of whatever their exported data looks like to give you a complete estimate.
Thanks Jay, have read about your work migrating mailing lists previously!
We would indeed be going with the discourse.org option if this materialises. But thought I would get in to the swing of Discourse and see if anyone had done this before.
Can’t see any documentation on what it may look like but I’ll try and find out.
안녕하세요, Workplace에서 Discourse로 쉽게 마이그레이션하는 방법을 찾으셨나요? 영국 섭식장애 전문가 4,000명으로 구성된 커뮤니티의 새로운 정착지를 찾아야 해서요. 저희는 Workplace를 검색 기능이 좋은 포럼으로만 사용했습니다. 감사합니다. 존 드림
