Error importing data into Sanity project due to outdated CLI version

Last updated: Jun 23, 2023
I'm in the process of merging two sanity projects together. I've moved the schemas and components ++ into a new project, and it is working fine. Now I want to migrate the data from the old projects into the new one. I managed to export it into a .ndjson file according to this documentation , now I try to follow the import steps found here , but I get the following error when I try:
Error: Command "dataset" is not available outside of a Sanity project context.
Run the command again within a Sanity project directory, where "@sanity/core"
is installed as a dependency.
As far as I can understand @sanity/core is a v2 package, right? Is there another way to do imports in v3?

Has anyone done anything similar and can point me in the right direction?

If it’s a v3 project make sure you have a 
sanity.cli.json
file

Do you mean sanity.cli.js / sanity.cli.ts?

Ah yes, sorry. Sounds like you might already have it?

I do, so I don't think that's the problem. But thanks for trying

It looks like you have V2 of the CLI installed.

Thank you! That was the issue. I updated the client and was able to import the dataset 😊
