# Migrating from dashboard-react
As of September 2024, the [Wix dashboard-react SDK](fallback::https://dev.wix.com/docs/sdk/host-modules/dashboard-react/introduction) is deprecated and closed to new users. You can access the functionality of the dashboard-react SDK using the [Dashboard SDK](fallback::https://dev.wix.com/docs/sdk/host-modules/dashboard/introduction). 

Below is a list of the deprecated `dashboard-react` components and functions and their alternatives in the Dashboard SDK.

<blockquote class="important">
  <strong>Important:</strong>
  
  If you are building a <a href="fallback::https://dev.wix.com/docs/build-apps/develop-your-app/frameworks/self-hosting/about-self-hosting-for-wix-apps">self hosted app</a>, you must create a <a href="fallback::https://dev.wix.com/docs/sdk/core-modules/sdk/wix-client">Wix Client</a> to use the <a href="fallback::https://dev.wix.com/docs/sdk/host-modules/dashboard/introduction">Dashboard SDK</a>.
</blockquote>

### [`PageLink`](fallback::https://dev.wix.com/docs/sdk/host-modules/dashboard-react/page-link)
Instead of navigating in the dashboard using PageLink, use [`navigate()`](fallback::https://dev.wix.com/docs/sdk/host-modules/dashboard/navigate) from the Dashboard SDK.

### [`withDashboard()`](fallback::https://dev.wix.com/docs/sdk/host-modules/dashboard-react/with-dashboard)
There is no use case for `withDashboard()` because it is used to initialize the [React SDK](portalId::b85dea5b-341b-493b-b99e-4d4ca12baaa2resourceId::46a03aa2-87c1-496f-8c33-fca414827486*fallback::https://dev.wix.com/docs/sdk/core-modules/sdk-react/introduction) and the [Dashboard React SDK](fallback::https://dev.wix.com/docs/sdk/host-modules/dashboard-react/introduction), both of which are deprecated.

> **Note:** This hook is temporarily required for use in [Wix Patterns](fallback::https://www.wix-pages.com/wix-patterns/?path=/story/getting-started--overview). It will continue to be supported while it is required.

### [`useDashboard()`](fallback::https://dev.wix.com/docs/sdk/host-modules/dashboard-react/use-dashboard)
Instead of accessing [dashboard](fallback::https://dev.wix.com/docs/sdk/host-modules/dashboard/introduction) functions through `useDashboard()`, call them directly. 

<details>
<summary>Wix-hosted example</summary>

```js
import { dashboard } from "@wix/dashboard";

dashboard.showToast({ message: "Hello World" });
```
</details>

<details>
<summary>Self-hosted example</summary>

```js
import { createClient } from "@wix/sdk";
import { dashboard } from "@wix/dashboard";

const client = createClient({
  host: dashboard.host(),
  auth: dashboard.auth(),
  modules: {
    dashboard,
  },
});

client.dashboard.showToast({ message: "Hello World" });
```
</details>

### [`usePageLocation()`](fallback::https://dev.wix.com/docs/sdk/host-modules/dashboard-react/use-page-location)
Instead of calling `usePageLocation()`, access `PageLocation` properties using the [`EnvironmentState`](fallback::https://dev.wix.com/docs/sdk/host-modules/dashboard/observe-state#environmentstate) property in `observeState()`.
