+title: Migrate to the Camunda 8 API
+description: "Create and manage clusters, and interact with Camunda 8 management API programmatically without using the Camunda 8 Console."
+---
+
+This document offers a comprehensive guide to migrate from Camunda's V1 component REST APIs (the Tasklist REST API, for example) to the V2 [Camunda 8 REST API](/apis-tools/camunda-api-rest/camunda-api-rest-overview.md).
+
+<!--- TODO: Insert _why_ a user should complete this migration. Deprecation announcements? --->
+
+## Migrate endpoints
+
+This section considers all public endpoints existing in the component REST APIs and the Camunda 8 API counterparts or required migration changes.
+
+### General changes
+
+**Changes for all endpoints:**
+
+- The new API can be found at `<cluster>/v2/…>` instead of `<cluster>/v1/…>`.
+- All endpoints are no longer separated by component concerns and all endpoints receive similar support. For example, process definitions, user tasks, and users, authorizations were previously spread across separate Tasklist, Operate, and Identity APIs.
+- Naming, response codes, and type handling have been streamlined for all endpoints to provide a consistent UX.
+- Endpoints with similar concerns (variable search, for example) have been consolidated into single endpoints.
+
+**Changes for endpoints that query for data:**
+
+- Unified search request structure.
+  - Attributes `filter`, `page`, and `sort` on root level.
+  - Endpoint-specific filter attributes in the filter object, not at the root level.
+  - Pagination information in the `page` object. For example, the attributes `from`, `limit`, `searchBefore`, and `searchAfter`.
+  - Sorting configuration in sort object array, each object containing the field name and order (descending or ascending).
+- Unified search response structure.
+  - Attributes `items` and `page` on root level.
+  - List of endpoint-specific response items in `items` attribute.
+  - Page information in `page` attribute, for example the attributes `totalItems`, `firstSortValues`, and `lastSortValues` to use in `searchBefore` and `searchAfter` in follow-up requests.
+
+<!--- TBD since currently in progress: Filter attributes can use Advanced Search capabilities depending on their type. TBD: We need to see how much of this we manage to implement with 8.7 (which endpoints, which attributes, which types). --->
+
+### Name changes and mappings
+
+The following conventions apply to all attributes:
+
+- `key` and `id` fields contain the entity as a prefix, for example, `userTaskKey`, `processDefinitionId`. This applies when referencing other resources like `formKey` in the user task entity, in the respective entities themselves like `userTaskKey` in the user task entity.
+- The full entity is the prefix to avoid confusion, for example `processDefinitionKey` instead of `processKey` (the latter could be interpreted as process instance or process definition).
+- Other attributes of entities themselves have no prefix to avoid clutter, for example version in the process definition entity. In other resources, they have to be referenced with a prefix, like `processDefinitionVersion` in the process instance entity.
+- The `bpmnProcessId` is now called `processDefinitionId` to be easily relatable to the entity (process definition) and the accompanying `processDefinitionKey`.
+- The `decisionKey` and `dmnDecisionKey` are now aligned to `decisionDefinitionKey`, the `decisionId` and `dmnDecisionId` to `decisionDefinitionId`. Similar to the `processDefinitionId`, those attributes are now related to the entity `decisionDefinition`.
