Hi guys,

Any of you have had a migration of instance and if so, how do you dealt with the "moving" of the Design Studio assets please?

Kind regards,

Raúl

clone them into a Program, then import the Program into the new instance. For Forms, make sure the fields also exist in the destination instance. Same for Lead tokens in Emails/LPs. Dynamic Content & snippets not supported in Program Import.

Hi Jep,

Do I have to move them back to Design Studio after I import the program with the assets in the new instance?

I wanted to compare the 2 instances to see what are the differences between assets (due I don't know which ones are missing in the new one). I have 500+ emails and 900+ images/files. Do you know a way to get that easily? Only Landing Pages are "exportable" to excel...

Thank you!

Hi Raul,

Yes, you probably will want to move them where they were located originally.

We always recommend the following practices to our customers:

  • Only locate templates and forms in the design studio. Shared forms make for a much simpler maintenance, as forms sometimes have to be modified.
  • All emails and landing pages should be located within programs in the Marketing activities.

Excepted with some API dev to get a complete listing of all the assets, there is not simple way to compare the assets in 2 instances.

Hi Raul,

I understand that Marketo PS also has an instance migration service.
