❓ How to keep original UUID when importing posts into Ghost?

Developer help
1

Hi Ghost team,

I’m migrating posts from one Ghost site to another. For example:

  • Post on domainA.com has UUID: 68694f984c044e0001852f32

  • After exporting to JSON, I confirmed this UUID is preserved

  • But after importing into domainB.com, the post gets a new UUID

Is there a way to preserve the original UUID across imports?

I’ve tried:

  • Keeping the id, uuid, and created_at fields in the JSON

  • Importing into a clean Ghost site (no posts)

But Ghost still generates a new UUID.

Would it be safe to manually update the UUID in the database afterwards?

Thanks!
