In this walkthrough, we’ll break down exactly how the legacy Editor deprecation affects freelancers and agencies — including what legacy Editor users are migrated to, how client seats and roles work, and what to expect at each key milestone.
You’ll also see real-world scenarios that show how migration works depending on whether you assign client seats early, wait for automatic migration, or onboard new clients during the transition.
