Data Migration

  • If there was already a PhotoShelter account associated with your email address, the PhotoShelter password for that account will remain the same.
  • If you were using external authentication for your Third Light account (e.g. Active Directory, SAML, AD FS, etc.), we won't have brought your password across. You will need to reset your password here.
    
    
• Your entire library of assets, including images, videos, and all other media files, will be transferred to PhotoShelter for Brands. You will be able to access your new PhotoShelter Library here.
  
  
• The IPTC metadata associated with your files will be transferred where there is one-to-one mapping for a field between Third Light and PhotoShelter. Any unmapped text metadata values that are less than 100 characters long will be added as keywords.
  
  
• Any users on your Third Light account will also be migrated over to PhotoShelter for Brands.  See our Glossary for an overview of PhotoShelter naming conventions, and learn more about team permissions.
