Migrating from Create
If you're an early adopter who started using Canvas in it's experimental phase when it was called Sanity Create, here's how to export your documents so they'll be accessible in your dashboard.
1In Create, locate the Export to Canvas option
While in Sanity Create, open the right sidebar menu and locate the option to export your documents to Canvas. It should be in the bottom section of the sidebar.
2Select your organization
If you belong to more than one organization, choose the appropriate option from the list of organizations. If you don't belong to any organization yet, you have the option to create one.
Not all content will be exported
As mentioned in the export dialog, some things won't be included in your exported documents. File assets, content mapping and studio link data, as well as comments do not carry over to Canvas.
3Select your documents, and start the export
Once you have chosen the appropriate organization to target for your exported content, select some or all of the available documents to bring with you.
Once you are satisfied with your selection, click Start Export ->
A status view should appear to keep you up to date on the progress.
4Open dashboard and find your documents
Once the export progress is complete, click the button labeled Open Dashboard. The dashboard should open with the Canvas tab active, and your documents should be listed.
