Steps to ensure an easy migration from any digital downloads app to Sky Pilot

When Migrating over to Sky Pilot, there are a few steps you need to take to ensure a smooth transition between your digital downloads app.

**Important note before starting this migration. Please ensure your digital products are setup in Sky Pilot and you have not uninstalled your previous Digital Downloads app.**

 

Before uninstalling your current digital downloads app, you would want to install Sky Pilot first. We would want to make sure that your customers can still access and download their content during this transition.

 

Once Sky Pilot is installed, and once all content is attached to desired options, follow the steps below to ensure all your customers can download it properly:

 

1. Launch the app and head over to Settings > Integrations


2. Select Import previous orders


3. Check the downloads URL path is correct by heading over to your Shopify admin and to Settings > Apps and Sales channel


4. Choose Sky Pilot and go to App Proxy


5. Double-check that the URL ends as .myshopify.com/apps/downloads


Note: Please make sure that you do not have other digital downloads app on the same proxy URL otherwise this will not work. If you do have another URL that is the same, edit the other first by adding -1 to the URL.

 

E.g .myshopify.com/apps/download-1 (The number 1 can be replaced with any numeric value)
