| Developer Portal Migration to Drupal 8 | Notes: Drupal 8 Migration Notes Links: Dev environment on the local machine. Lando - we will have a local copy and one in Pantheon. Error upgrading the site, once resolved he will proceed. Keep track of errors and resolution. Keep in the Jira ticket. Advantages of Lando is having a repeatable development environment, that can be used by all. Navodit - working on the workflow migration, need a custom work-around. 4 options: 1- custom script to migrate the data, 2 - migrate it from the Drupal 7 to the Drupal 8 database, 3 - look if someone else has done it, so far cannot find any examples, 4 - manually migrate the workflow. Currently exploring the options and then will make a decision. Navodit manually recreated the rules on the local installation of Drupal 8. Developing a sql script that copies over the requests with their history from D7 to D8 database. There is a workflow tab now. Some workflow functionality is not available in Drupal 8. content types, users, roles, permissions are migrated. Workflow history has been migrated. The workflow was setup manually. we have issues with the roles module. we either have to do custom coding, or create a custom module. There is another module that gives us the functionality. Navodit tested it and it is working perfectly. The rules module holds the events and logic for sending emails. The team decided to switch to the new business-rules module. Views have to be migrated.

| Workflow module | Ian Lessing (Unlicensed) | You know how I've grumbled and griped about using Drupal for our API Request and API Publishing workflows. Well, I just learned about an alternative that might suit our use cases much better than difficult Drupal. Podio! | |
