# Importing Existing Instance
If you already have a WordPress Instance you would like to import into PanelAlpha, you can do that in the same way you would create a new instance, on My Instances page. After clicking on Add New Instance pick Import Existing WordPress Instance.
Type in your current WordPress instance URL and continue.
To enable PanelAlpha to download your instance, you need to provide the FTP/SFTP connection details.
You can monitor all client-initiated imports from your admin area under the Migrations section. Here, you'll find a list of:
- All currently in-progress migrations.
- Failed migrations, along with descriptions of the issues and steps to resolve them.
- Successfully completed migrations.
