Migrate your projects_root directory

This section explains how to migrate your projects_root directory and configuration settings to a new Validate installation.

Do not migrate Validate to or past version 2025.2 without first setting the required environment variable: SKIP_MIGRATE_ENTITIES_CLEANUP=true. Migration paths that include 2025.2 can result in data visibility issues if this variable is not set.

For full details, including recovery options if you have already migrated, see Existing data not viewable after migrating to or through version 2025.2.
