How to Migrate Content into Guru from GitHub
Part 1 - Export (Clone) Content from Github
Note
Github does not offer an explicit export option. Instead, you can use the below instructions to clone the wiki then zip its contents for the import.
- Copy your GitHub wiki URL.

- Drag + drop or upload the downloaded file, then click Start Import.
- Your file will be uploaded to our migrator tool, where we will process the files into a readable format for Guru, compress those files, then upload them to the designated Collection.
Due to the nature of these jobs, the general waiting time can sometimes exceed 30 minutes. An email will be sent once the migration is complete.
