Migration from M2E Pro Magento 1 to M2E Pro Magento 2

This article describes the overall preparation and execution of the data migration from Magento 1 to Magento 2. Please note that the process requires technical skills. You can consult your developers if you need it.

Preliminary requirements

1. Install the latest Module versions available for the data migration:

Magento 1

Magento 2

2. Transfer your Magento database from v1.x to v2.x.

⚠️

If you use the Magento Data Migration Tool to migrate your Magento database, you must ignore all M2E Pro tables (the table names contain prefix 'm2epro_') navigating by the pattern:

%magento2_installation_directory%/vendor/magento/data-migration-tool/etc/%from_edition%_to_%to_edition%/%source_magento_version%/map.xml .

Please find the example below:

<map xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xs:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="../../map.xsd">
    <source>
        <document_rules>
            <ignore>
                <document>m2epro_account</document>
            </ignore>
            ...
        </document_rules>
        ...
    </source>

<destination>
        <document_rules>
            <ignore>
                <document>m2epro_account</document>
            </ignore>
            ...
        </document_rules>
        ...
    </destination>

Once it is done, you can start migrating your M2E Pro database. Read the details below.

Steps to proceed

M2E Pro Migration Tool will help you to transfer your Module database. Follow the Migration Wizard hints to complete the process.

🗒️

Step 1 Disable Modules

To start the process, navigate to your Magento 2: Stores > Settings > Configuration > M2E Pro > Advanced Settings > Migration from Magento v1.x and click Proceed. You will be redirected to Step 1 of the Migration Wizard.

In Magento 1, go to System > Configuration > M2E Pro > Migration to Magento 2 and click Proceed. It can take up to 15 minutes to stop the dynamic Cron tasks, put M2E Pro under maintenance, and prepare its database for migration. Wait until the process is completed, then get back to your Magento 2 installation.

In Magento 2, click Continue at Wizard Step 1. It will stop the dynamic Cron tasks, put M2E Pro under maintenance, and clear its database before the migration. Once the process is completed, you will be redirected to the next step.

🗒️

Step 2 Database Migration

At Wizard Step 2, you need to transfer M2E Pro data from Magento 1 to Magento 2. To do it, complete the following actions:

In Magento 1, create a dump of all the tables with prefix 'm2epro_' including both the structure and data. You can use the mysqldump utility or phpMyAdmin options.

Import the created dump into the MySQL database of Magento 2.

Go back to the Migration Wizard following Stores > Settings > Configuration > M2E Pro > Advanced Settings > Migration from Magento 1 and click Continue. The imported data will be adapted to the Magento 2 environment. Once the process is completed, you will be redirected to the next step.
