How to migrate from Pocket to Linkwarden

Technical infrastructure migrations vary a lot depending on the tool — these are the general steps that apply to most cases.

  1. 1

    Export your configuration and data from Pocket

    Check Pocket's documentation for exporting projects, configuration and integrations — the exact format depends on the service, but almost all offer some export path for paid accounts.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Linkwarden environment

    Deploy Linkwarden in a staging environment first (not production) and replicate the base configuration before moving any real data.

  3. 3

    Migrate in pieces and validate each one

    Move one project or integration at a time instead of all at once, checking that each piece works in Linkwarden before moving on to the next.

  4. 4

    Update integrations that depended on Pocket

    Any external service (CI/CD, webhooks, SDKs) that pointed at Pocket needs to be reconfigured to point at your new Linkwarden instance.

Before cancelling Pocket

Before cancelling Pocket, confirm no production service still depends on it by checking recent access logs.
