How to export data and migrate content on Kobocourse.

If you are moving from a legacy Kobocourse environment or another platform, plan your migration carefully. Export what you need before deleting old accounts.

Before you start

  • Access to source platform files and customer lists.

Step 1

Inventory what to migrate

Videos, PDFs, customer emails, and product copy are the most common assets to transfer.

Step 2

Download source files

Store originals locally before uploading to Kobocourse media library or product wizards.

Open in dashboard

Step 3

Recreate products on Kobocourse

Follow the relevant setup guides for each product type. URLs will change — update links everywhere.

Create products

Step 4

Notify your audience

Send a clear migration email with new storefront URL and how to access purchases.

Tips & troubleshooting

  • Legacy backup tools may be retired — contact support@kobocourse.com for current migration assistance.
