How to add item pattern format via "Add items via textual definition"? (migrate from .items files)

Setup, Configuration and Use Migration

As usual, it depends :wink:

If you want to migrate your “classic” items-files into openHAB, then the answer would be yes. Please consider also to add [“Equipment”], ["Points] and so on. Potentially also synonyms (e.g. {synonyms=“Warm water”} for HabBot.

But there are other options. You might consider to create them via UI. Here you have all options immediately and there is no need to check how to convert all options into the item-file. Or you can create them via the API. But here I don’t have any experience.
