Migrate from Squarespace

Use the Import from URL recipe with your connected AI agent. This is a content migration workflow, not a Squarespace account connector or an automatic conversion of a Squarespace template.

What can move

The agent can read accessible public pages, extract text and semantic HTML, transfer reachable images through Typeroll’s media API, and create pages or collection content. Preserve existing paths where possible and record redirects for paths that change.

Layouts, galleries and repeated sections need to be rebuilt using the target site’s blocks, templates and styles. Forms, commerce, member areas, scheduling, analytics scripts and other hosted behavior need separate replacements or integrations. They are not transferred by copying page HTML.

Before you start

Create the target Site and set up its design, header and footer. Give your agent an API or MCP connection, the source address and the pages that matter. Keep the Squarespace site available until content and media have been verified.

Squarespace’s XML export covers selected content and is primarily intended for WordPress. It is not a complete site backup or a dedicated Typeroll import format. See Squarespace’s export guide for its current exclusions.

Migration steps

1. Ask the agent to inventory the homepage, sitemap and internal links. Compare the result with your own page list, including blog posts and image-heavy pages.
2. Import one representative page as a draft. Have the agent extract content, transfer the images and adapt it to the target design.
3. Review it in the visual editor. Imported HTML is not automatically a fully editable block tree; request blocks for sections your editors need to maintain visually.
4. Import the remaining pages. Rebuild galleries, Forms and navigation, and record redirects for changed URLs.
5. Review text, headings, image alt text, canonicals and mobile layout. Ask for a report of inaccessible or skipped URLs rather than assuming full coverage.
6. Save approved content and complete publishing setup. Verify a test deployment before moving the live domain.

Import the public content from https://source.example into this Typeroll Site.
Use our existing design. Start with one gallery page as a draft, report anything
unavailable, and keep a list of old and new URLs. Do not publish yet.

If a page blocks fetching or needs authentication, supply the text, images or source files you can legitimately access. Do not treat missing HTML as an empty page.
