Change can be hard—especially when it comes to software. 

At Lucid, we want to make it easier. Switching from Mural to Lucidspark doesn’t have to be a headache. We’ll let you know which documents you can migrate and how to migrate them. For more detailed guides and videos, check out our Training Labs course “Migrating from Mural to Lucidspark.”

Tips to prepare for successful document migration

While the full migration walk-through can be found in the course, here are some tips to make the process even smoother. 

  1. Take time to prioritize the documents you want to migrate. Most Lucid users find they need to migrate less than 10% of their existing documents, so you’ll save yourself a lot of time if you prioritize documents before transferring anything. 

  2. Create a folder on your desktop to store the documents you want to transfer in one place. If you plan to import Mural boards via PDFs, organizing your documents makes the migration quicker and easier. 

  3. Import up to 10 documents from your folder at the same time. Speed up your transfer by selecting multiple documents.

Looking for a different method of importing your documents? You can copy and paste your Mural boards to Lucidspark. Select content on a Mural board by clicking the Shift button + dragging over content with your mouse or use CTRL+A (on PC) or CMD+A (on Mac). Copy the content and paste it into a new Lucidspark board.
