Are there plans to create a migration path for transitioning single-page apps to multi-page? I'm wondering if I should just bite the bullet and start porting everything over to a brand new app, or if I should hold out. I'd much rather not migrate to a new app if possible.
Hey @jonnilundy,
I may be misunderstanding the question, but there is already an option to import an app as a page in a multipage app
Is this what you have in mind?
Oh that's helpful. What i was hoping for is being able to convert an existing app into multi-app. This way I don't have to deal with any url changes.
Ah yeah, that would be a nice feature. I don't think it is available at the moment, but will let the retool team chip in, maybe @ming?
Hey @jonnilundy, that's not a feature yet but it is planned for the long-term. You could also try the duplicate to multipage feature, it won't preserve the url but a lot should transfer
Hello ! is this now available as a feature? because i see a prompt on my app saying to click a button to do it.
and also what happens if we don't convert at all ?
Hey @Amir1 - good question. This feature is available on Cloud with the release of version
3.172
. We're also starting to prompt users to convert in order to take advantage of potential performance improvements.
I don't think there's any significant pressure to convert, though, as your legacy single-page apps will continue to function. Keep an eye out for any updates on our changelog page!
