Calling Data from Kentico 11 site to Kentico 13 site

Matthew Stone asked on November 20, 2023 15:38

I am pretty sure you can, but I just want to make sure that there wouldn't be any issues calling data from a kentico 11 site to a kentico 13 site. This is not a data migration, these are two separate websites.

thanks

kentico11 kentico13 api

You can, however, if you try to use the v11 API to call data from a v13 site, it will most likely error or fail in some way shape or form. You have 3 options in my opinion:

Use the REST API
Use raw SQL statements
Create your own API project to map/convert the v13 objects to v11 objects

To be clear, it is the opposite, it would be calling v11 data to the v13 site. They have 2 websites, one they are looking to upgrade, the other which is in v11 isn't being upgraded yet, but they still want to call data from the v11. Does your answers still apply then? Thanks

My answer remains the same, but v13 calling v11 instead.
