Question

How to move photos direct from creative cloud to Lightroom Cloud (not asking for migration)?

Hi, I still have my photos with my file structure (Country/Town/Date) on Creative Cloud. Since the synchronization service will be stopped February 2024, I want to move everything from Creative Cloud to Lightroom Cloud.

Working with migration process from LrC to Lr is very time consuming. 
I just want to move the fieles from one Cloud (Creative Cloud) to another (Lightroom Cloud). I guess Creative Cloud and the Cloud of Lightroom are independent from each other. Maybe a simple "copy and paste" process from one Cloud to the other Cloud already exists...

 

Does anyone know, if there is a way how to do this?

Best Regards

    Are the files in the Creative Cloud folder structure currently in a Lightroom Classic catalog?

    If so, and you want all these in cloud storage, then the best option may be Migration.

     

    The question is though, do you want all your photos in the Lightroom Cloud Ecosystem and have a plan with enough storage to do so?

     

    You may know Lightroom Cloud does not have a file system based folder structure (your Collections can be converted to Albums).

    If the idea was to keep using Lightroom Classic but have your files in Lightroom Cloud   (instead of Creative Cloud), then it although the two can be used together, it would be better to keep your files on local discs and keep using Classic.

    It depends what your ultimate goal is?
