Provider migration

Migrate from Docusaurus to Sourced

Docusaurus is great for hand-written docs. Sourced is built for API teams that want generated reference pages, SDKs, and release checks from OpenAPI. On this page: what to scan in your Docusaurus setup, the migration checks Sourced runs, and a preview of the generated SDK and docs you would get.

Unlimited previews. No credit card required.

What to check

Versioned docs routes need redirect coverage.

04

Search and llms.txt need to be rebuilt from the generated output.

Migration checklist

01

Export the docs content and versioned sidebar config from Docusaurus.

02

Identify which pages are API reference, SDK guides, changelog, and general docs.

03

Move operation examples, auth schemes, and response models into OpenAPI before generation.

04

Generate a Sourced preview and map Docusaurus versioned URLs to the new docs paths.

05

Keep the old Docusaurus site read-only until Sourced previews and redirects are accepted.

03Details

Why Sourced fits

01

Sourced removes the hand-maintained API reference layer.

02

SDK previews ship alongside docs previews from the same OpenAPI source.

03

Release reports show what changed before customers see it.

04

Honest trade-off: if your docs are mostly product guides and React-heavy custom pages, Docusaurus can remain the better editing framework.
