You cannot use a Mapbox.js style in Mapbox GL JS.

Mapbox GL JS and Mapbox.js use very different rendering technologies and therefore have incompatible style specifications.

Have you considered using Mapbox Studio to tweak the GL style you are using?

Hello Lucas ! Thanks for your answer ! There a way to copy the style of Mapbox.js in Mapbox Studio and export to MapboxGL ?

No, you cannot use a Mapbox.js style in GL. You will have to start with the GL style and tweak it to fit your app's styling.

Ok Thanks Lucas ! :)
