I am looking at methods to move contents programmatically and wondering what is the easiest and best way.
We are changing the site structure therefore we'll need to re-parent several existing contents, and we'd like to automate this process as much as we can.
Our use case has two scenarios:
- move Forums Threads from one forum application to another forum application
- move Blog Posts from one blog application to another blog application
We have tried to use the REST API, specifically the update endpoint for forum threads and passing the target Forum Id as parameter but it didn't work, so digging more into the REST API documentation we have found the 'Convert Content Content Conversion' endpoint: https://community.telligent.com/community/10/w/api-documentation/61508/convert-content-content-conversion-rest-endpoint which seems to fit the purpose however I am not sure what this mean:
- Requires a matching IContentConverter plugin to be enabled.
Is this an existing/available plugin that need to be enabled through the admin panel or do we need to implement it?
Thank you in advance for your help.
