What Happens When You Disable Data Mode

  1. CDN content retained — Existing encrypted files remain on the CDN but are no longer updated
  2. Hosting mode reverts — Project switches back to the previous hosting mode (Full Host or Rewrite)
  3. Pages require re-publish — You'll need to re-publish pages to generate non-encrypted versions
  4. Encryption key preserved — The key remains valid for reading existing CDN content

Response

Migration Considerations

Before disabling Data Mode:

  • Re-publish all pages after disabling to generate standard (non-encrypted) versions
  • Update your frontend to stop fetching from the CDN endpoint
  • Keep your encryption key if you need to access previously encrypted CDN content
  • Webhook consumers should be prepared for a burst of page.published events during re-publishing

Migration Script Example

# After disabling Data Mode, re-publish all pages PAGES=$(curl -s "https://api.pagegun.com/pages?project_id=proj_abc123" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $PAGEGUN_API_KEY" | jq -r '.data[].id') for PAGE_ID in $PAGES; do curl -s -X POST "https://api.pagegun.com/pages/$PAGE_ID/publish" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $PAGEGUN_API_KEY" echo "Published: $PAGE_ID" sleep 0.5 # Respect rate limits done
