FAQPage Schema
How do I migrate Kentico KX13 widgets to Xperience by Kentico?▼

To migrate Kentico KX13 widgets to Xperience by Kentico, you need C# widget and widget property migration implementations that transform KX13 widget JSON into XbyK-ready structures, handling type identifier renaming and property restructuring automatically.

What is the best way to convert KX13 widget property values during a content migration?▼

The best way to convert KX13 widget property values is by generating IWidgetPropertyMigration code or delegating to built-in conversion migrations, which handle specific property value transformations including overrides for defaults like page selectors.

Can I generate dependency injection safe code for Kentico widget migrations?▼

Yes, generating dependency injection safe code for Kentico widget migrations produces DI-safe transient registrations specifically designed for the Migration.Tool.Extensions project, ensuring your IWidgetMigration and IWidgetPropertyMigration classes integrate cleanly.

Do I need a migration plan to restructure widget JSON for Xperience by Kentico?▼

You do not strictly need a formal migration plan to restructure widget JSON for Xperience by Kentico, because the generation process supports both migration-plan-driven inputs and free-text descriptions of widget transformations and property conversions.

Why does my KX13 to XbyK content migration require widget type renaming?▼

KX13 to XbyK content migration requires widget type renaming because Xperience by Kentico uses different type identifiers for widgets and sections, necessitating C# migration implementations to map and transform the legacy JSON structures correctly.
