As shared [in August](https://renku.discourse.group/t/renku-legacy-gitlab-shut-downs-start-in-2-months/1176), Renku Legacy shuts down on October 28th. Hence, you need to take action to retain access to your Renku Legacy projects and code repositories. We have prepared a detailed our [transition guide](https://blog.renkulab.io/sunsetting-legacy/#how-to-migrate-projects-from-renku-legacy-to-renku-20) for step-by-step instructions and a [video series](https://www.youtube.com/@renkuio1503) to ensure a smooth transition.

Bear in mind that you still have time until January 2026 to move your code repositories from gitlab.renkulab to your preferred service provider.

If you have any doubts do not hesitate to **contact us at** [hello@renku.io](mailto:hello@renku.io) or post a question in this forum.

Best regards,

The Renku Team
