We are in the process of migrating Talend Studio projects from version 7.3 to 8.
The 7.3 jobs were deployed as Docker images in ECR. For some jobs, there are multiple versions in Git, and we are unable to identify which version was actually deployed.
We have pulled the Docker images as .tar files and attempted to import them into Talend Studio 8, but we encounter the following error:
“No valid items to import.”
From our investigation, it appears that these .tar files are Docker images containing compiled job runtimes, not Talend job export files.
Could you please advise on the best approach to extract or obtain the correct Talend job items from these Docker images so that they can be imported into our Talend Studio 8 for review and migration?

Hello @AkshataIDX,
Talend Docker images don’t contain source `.item` files needed for Studio import—they package compiled artifacts only. To recover the exact job version, match the image’s build metadata or tags with Git commit history. For future traceability, embed version info during CI/CD builds.
Best regards,
Donna Taylor
Docker images contains the "binaries" , you need to import "source files" from the previous workspace or git server
