The option was removed back in November as Classic apps have been deprecated for quite a while now.

Hi Jeff,

Thanks for your quick answer.

Has glide developed a safe migration of classic apps to glide pages already?

I understood glide was working on it a while ago…

Many thanks.

No there hasn’t been any new development on that as far as I’m aware. At this point I’m not hopeful that they will ever have a conversion tool, but I don’t really know.

I started converting my app by creating a new app from data, which retains all of your computed columns. I’m building the front end from scratch. To be honest, I prefer it this way because it gives me a chance to revisit every aspect of my app and make improvements. Plus, I feel that there are enough differences between classic apps and new apps that I wouldn’t really trust Glide to make a “best guess” conversion.
