Move a Project between deployments

If you have a project on a deployment, such as a Trial deployment, and want to move it to a deployment, such as a Production deployment, you can use the CLI.

Important

This process only moves the latest files. It doesn’t move the history and revisions.

For more information about the CLI, see Install the Domino Client (CLI).

Prerequisites

You must have the latest local copy of your project on your workstation. If you don’t have a local copy of the project, review the Domino CLI Reference to get it.

Move the Project between deployments

Go to the project on your local system that you’d like to migrate:
```
cd <your-project>
```
.domino is what identifies it as a domino project.

To remove this (UNIX):
```
rm -rf .domino
```
To remove this (Windows):
```
rmdir /s/q .domino and del .domino*
```
Log into the target deployment, initialize, and upload your project:
```
domino login <target URL>
```
```
domino init
```
```
domino upload
```
Log into the new Domino system where your project is hosted and verify the access and collaboration settings are correct. You might have to update the access and collaboration settings because they do not transfer with the project.
