Efficiently migrate data between platforms and systems
How It Works#
Point Firecrawl at your source website to crawl every page and return clean, structured data. From there, you transform the output to match your target platform's schema and import it using that platform's API or bulk-import tools.
What You Can Migrate#
- Content: Pages, posts, articles, media files, metadata
- Structure: Hierarchies, categories, tags, taxonomies
- Users: Profiles and user-related data where publicly accessible
- Settings: Configurations, custom fields, workflows
- E-commerce: Products, catalogs, inventory, orders
Common Migration Use Cases#

Extract content from WordPress, Drupal, and Joomla sites or custom CMS platforms. Preserve content structure and metadata, then export for import into new systems like Contentful, Strapi, or Sanity.
Extract product catalogs from Magento and WooCommerce stores including inventory, pricing, descriptions, and specifications. Format data for import into Shopify, BigCommerce, or other platforms.
