Hi there,

I’ve been searching the forums, but haven’t found the step-by-step guide just yet.

I’ve seen others (like Vaadin here: [Moving from Discord to vaadin.com/forum - Vaadin Forum](https://vaadin.com/forum/t/moving-from-discord-to-vaadin-com-forum/165696) ) successfully migrating from Discord to Discourse.

I have an active community of just shy of 1000 people I want to move to Discourse.

## My main 2 questions are:

1. How can I automatically create Discourse user account for each Discord user (alongside with the proper trust level)
2. What’s the best way to move the Forum channels content from Discord to Discourse?

Discord will stay in our techstack for video capabilities - daily calls and coworking sessions I run there, but we want to have Discourse as a main place for our long-form communication.

Is there a guide I could follow to make it happen?
