What are my options?

As an admin of your DSM library, there are three ways you can start using the new DSM:

1. Automatically import your existing libraries in the legacy DSM. This approach is recommended if you want to keep the existing structure of your design system.
2. Export components from legacy DSM and use them to manually rebuild in new DSM.
3. Start from a blank slate. This is helpful if you want to completely restructure your design system going forward.

Need help deciding? Here are some helpful tips:

Consider Automatically importing your existing libraries in the legacy DSM if:

• You're actively using DSM
• You have inflight projects
• You need to keep the library to support legacy projects
• You have teams referencing the content (ie. brand colours, typography etc)

Export components from legacy DSM and use them to manually rebuild in new DSM if:

• Your components are still relevant but your documentation is out of date and you need to re-write it
• You're thinking of restructuring or merging legacy libraries
• You're not in a rush to move your library now

Start from a blank slate if

• You have libraries that are out of date/unused and no longer needed
• You have old projects that no longer require your Legacy libraries
• You need to rebuild all your components & Design System
