Hi

First i would use the tool asa migration post 8.3 (https://fwm.cisco.com/applauncher.do#appstore:1) and then i would either use APIs (using cisco ansible librairies https://developer.cisco.com/docs/ftd-ansible-v6-3/#!introduction-to-ftd-ansible/introduction-to-ansible-modules-for-ftd-6-3-0 or you can build your own Python code) or use Cisco CDO to convert asa config into FDM. 

thanks

Hi, the problem with the migaration tool and cdo is, i think booth use license. And i don´t have license. The idea is migrate the config with some tool or any other method that didn´t requiere license.

So you'll need to parse the config using libraries like ciscoconfparse, put it into a database or file and use a python/ansible script to push it back on ftd using APIs.

You can do all at the same time using the same script to fetch and push.
