Steps to sync Google Group to Discourse

Mostly just shorthand notes for myself so I don’t have to keep looking them up

  • SSH into server
  • if import container isn’t already running,
    • /var/discourse/launcher start import
  • otherwise
    • /var/discourse/launcher enter import
  • run download script, login must be manager/admin and NO 2FA
    • script/import_scripts/google_groups.rb -e <email_address> -p <password> -g <group_name>
  • run migration script
  • import_mbox.sh
  • exit
