Question

Hi Hugo, I'm migrating a legacy web app to SPO and I would like to migrate existing comments. Is there an easy way to do this? I imagine your webpart stores everything in a SP list.? Would I just programmatically load data into that list?

Hi @sudharsank,

Hello @sanjeevba ,

This is a complex question ;) You could indeed load your existing data in the SharePoint list used by the web part. But I guess the complex part would be to update your data architecture so that your legacy data (source data) matches the data architecture required by the web part.

Hi @a1mery,

I don't quite understand why I'd have to 'update my data architecture'. The only fields I'd be migrating would be: Comment txt, Author, and Created date.

I was hoping I could look at an existing list item created by the web part and programmatically create additional (similar) list items for the migrated comments.

Hi Sanjeev,

Below is the schema that is used for Modern Comments. When you migrate the existing comments, you should update the other fields as well with the correct values and also if you have any replies, the parent and the child should be mapped correctly.

      "id": "c4", "parent": null, "created": "2023-06-24T10:52:45.584Z", "modified": "2023-06-24T10:52:45.584Z", "content": "sd fsd ds fd", "pings": {}, "fullname": "Sudha", "profile_picture_url": @.***", "created_by_current_user": false, "upvote_count": 0, "user_has_upvoted": false, "userid": 7

I hope the above clarifies your question.

Thanks, Sudharsan
