Hello @at7140 ,

I believe you are talking about the images under Resources → Online → Public resources.

From what I’ve seen, when you try to export them via a package, it only exports the definition (like file name, type, etc.) from the xtk:fileRes schema — it does not export the actual content from v7.

Here’s what I think you can try:

1. I assume your images are hosted on Adobe Cloud (on MID or RT server), and you're using either a Managed Cloud or Hybrid Architecture.

2. You can contact the Adobe support team and ask them to move the images from the v7 container to the v8 res container.

3. Then you can export all the fileRes data via package. It should be possible to import it into the new environment — please double-check, but I believe it should work.

4. Once imported, the images will refer to the new location.

This approach applies if your images are hosted on Adobe Managed/MID/RT Campaign Cloud.

Hope this helps!

Kind regards,
Parvesh

Hi @at7140 ,

There's no single automated process within Adobe Campaign to directly migrate all HTML images from v7 to v8 via a package. Adobe Campaign doesn't offer a built-in migration tool that handles image transfers in this way. The image migration needs a more manual or script-based approach.

1. Manual Copy: The most straightforward method is to manually copy the image files from the v7 instance's file system to the v8 instance's file system. This requires identifying the location of the images in v7 and the corresponding location in v8. This is only feasible for smaller numbers of images.

2. Script-Based Migration: You can write a script (e.g., using Python or a similar language) to automate the process. The script would:

• Access the image file paths in the v7 instance (likely through an API or by accessing the file system directly if allowed).
• Copy the files to the designated directory in the v8 instance.
• Update the HTML references in your v8 templates to point to the new image locations. This is crucial; otherwise, the images won't display correctly.

Thanks,
