# Migrate to Illinois Chat

We are in the process of migrating <https://uiuc.chat/> to a the official campus supported instance <https://chat.illinois.edu/>.\
\
As part of this process we have disabled chatbot creation on <https://uiuc.chat/> and encourage users to create new chatbots on <https://chat.illinois.edu/>.\
\
If you have a chatbot on the old instance <https://uiuc.chat/> that you would like help migrating files from and to the new instance <https://chat.illinois.edu/>, please follow the following steps. We ask you to create a new chatbot on the new instance and we can help move the files over to the new instance. We will not be migrating the chat history.&#x20;
