In this session, we'll explore how Drupal's Migrate API serves as a powerful tool for integrating external data sources with your website. Whether you need to perform one-time imports or maintain ongoing data synchronization, the Migrate API can streamline the entire Extract, Transform, Load (ETL) process.
Drupal's Migrate API offers a powerful approach for integrating external data into Drupal's content structure, providing an ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) framework that can handle both one-time imports and continuous synchronization.
Key aspects of the presentation:
- Demonstration of how the Migrate API simplifies common use cases: importing legacy content, syncing product catalogs, and integrating with external platforms
- Working with Drupal's content types and fields: strategies for mapping and transforming external data
- Practical examples from basic imports to advanced synchronization patterns
- Extending Migrate API capabilities using contributed modules and custom plugins for specific integration needs
- Key challenges and limits when working with external data and Migrate
The session concludes with an interactive Q&A. This presentation is suitable for developers of all experience levels, with no prior Migrate API knowledge required.
