abctl migrate from docker compose

[tassilucas]

Hi,

We are currently running Airbyte v0.50.31 using the deprecated Docker Compose deployment. We are now trying to upgrade to a newer Airbyte version without recreating all connections, sources, and destinations.

According to the documentation, this should be possible using abctl with the --migrate flag:
https://docs.airbyte.com/platform/deploying-airbyte/migrating-from-docker-compose

However, it seems that the --migrate flag has since been deprecated:
#65071

Given this, what is the currently recommended migration path from Docker Compose to a newer Airbyte version?

We also tried migrating by performing database dumps between instances, but the schemas appear to differ significantly between versions, which makes this approach unreliable.

Any guidance or best practices would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
