# Migrating a project to Base44

> Bring your existing apps, projects or websites into Base44 from other platforms, including your actual data, schema, and frontend code.

You can migrate an existing project from another platform directly into Base44. Base44 connects to your source and brings over not just the design and structure, but your actual data too: contacts, products, pages, and more. Pick up right where you left off, without starting from scratch.

This works with both SaaS tools like Salesforce, HubSpot, Shopify, and WordPress, and vibe-coding platforms like Lovable and Bolt.new.

## FAQs

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="How is this different from Start from URL?">
    **Start from URL** captures the look and feel of any public webpage, with no credentials needed.

    **Migrate from another platform** connects to your actual account and brings over your real data, schema, and frontend code. It requires credentials and is designed for users who want to carry their existing work into Base44, not just replicate a design.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can I choose which data to import?">
    Yes. After connecting, Base44 shows you what's available and lets you select what to bring over before the migration runs.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="What if my migration takes a long time?">
    Large datasets can take a while depending on the size of your data. You can leave the page and your migration will continue running in the background.
