Now generally available: Easily migrate files from Microsoft OneDrive to Google Drive
What’s changing
In October 2024, we expanded our data migration services to include the ability for Admins to transfer OneDrive data to Google Drive. This functionality is now generally available. You can migrate the files of up to 100 users at a time, including the files corresponding access permissions with shared members.
With the general availability release, we’ve also added additional settings which admins can use to:
- Specify files to migrate within a certain date range.
- Exclude specific file formats and large files.
- Skip uploading an identity map and allow Google to automatically map source and target users instead.
Now that the tool is generally available, with more customization settings, you can quickly and easily migrate your data to Workspace at scale while minimizing disruption for end users. For more information, please refer to our original beta announcement.
