Hello! I'm working on a migration from a Hugo static site to Umbraco CMS. The "database" for the Hugo site is a large collection (~1000) of Markdown files. My current approach is: - parse Markdown files using [MarkDig](https://github.com/xoofx/markdig) - create content using [Content Service](https://docs.umbraco.com/umbraco-cms/v/10.latest-lts/reference/management/services/contentservice/create-content-programmatically) Would anyone have any suggestions of whether this approach will work, or whether I'm reinventing the wheel, or if another approach would work better? TIA! Rich

Assuming the content will just be a rich text editor, this sounds about right. 👍 Umbraco also has a markdown editor, so if they like writing markdown you could stick with that and skip markdig.

I should clarify - the reason for the "parse with Markdig" phase is because the metadata for the article ("author", "title", "description" etc.) is in the file like this:

---

    title: Umbraco Image
    name: umbracoimage

Here is the body of the blog article about why Umbraco is great. In this essay I will [...]

So, in my mind, the parsing needs to be done to correctly identify these metadata fields before using Content Service to create the article a fresh. Does that sounds correct?

Cool, sounds exactly right!

OH cool, that's really interesting - thank you!
