I installed/enabled 2 modules on D8: Migrate Tools(8.x-4.0-beta1), Migrate Plus(8.x-4.0-beta1), than "Migration" menu appeared in Config Type of Import/Export Single Items of CMI.
The problem is that "Migration" menu disappeared after I cleared site cache.
Please take a look on the video of reproduce steps .

Could anyone help me please.
Thanks a lot.

Do you have any migrations defined? I believe the config entity type only appears if there are existing entities of that type.

Thanks Mikeryan,

You are right. I tested it again in a clean D8 envirorment and found that we need have at least one migration config to keep Migration item in Configuration Type before we clear site cache.

The problem is that we can't find Migration item from Configuration Type in CMI if we continually install other modules or clear site cache before we import a single migration definition.

Is there anyway to display Migration item from Configuration Type again? Otherwise I need reinstall my D8 again.

Thanks a lot for your help.

Please note that when adding more info to a "Postponed (maintainer needs more info)" issue, you should reset the status to Active to maximize the chance your response is seen.

I'm not clear on how it hurts to not have the Migration configuration type available when there are no migration configuration entities to export?

Thanks Mikeryan,

Thank you so much for your advice, and pointed me to change the issue status.

I am a beginner in D8, and followed some documents(e.g. Using the Migrate Source CSV plugin) to import csv data to D8.
I don't want to create a custom module to do so, but import migration config than run it by drush commands seemed a good/simple way for me, and I can delete these configs after importing data easily.
That's the reason I need use Migration item from Migration Configuration Type.

Please let me know Is there anyone know how get Migration item back to Migration Configuration Type in CMI.
