How to migrate your flows and data from Kestra Open Source to Enterprise Edition.

Migrate from Open Source to Enterprise Edition

When you start a free trial of Kestra Enterprise Edition, you can bring your existing flows from the open-source version. This guide covers how to export and import flows, and what to keep in mind for other resources.

Export and import flows

Kestra provides a built-in export/import mechanism for flows:

  1. In the Open Source UI, go to Settings.
  2. Click Export All Flows to download a single .zip file containing all your flows.
  3. In the Enterprise Edition UI, go to Flows.
  4. Click Import and select the .zip file you downloaded.

This will import all flows into your Enterprise Edition instance.

Namespace files, KV store, and other resources

Namespace Files and the Key-Value Store data are not included in the flow export. If you rely on these, you will need to migrate them manually.

For Namespace Files, re-upload the files through the Enterprise Edition UI or use the API. For the KV Store, recreate the entries in your new instance.

What’s next

Once your flows are imported, you can start using enterprise features such as RBAC, Secrets Management, Worker Groups, and more.
