How to migrate OneDrive for Business content from one Tenat to another
Hello,
I have a demand to migrate OneDrive content from one tenant to another.
Accounts, mailboxes and their contents have no problems.
But OneDrive is keeping me awake at night.
Before, SMT could do something similar to Sharepoint pages. While evolution is in fact involution, why it lost that capability over OneDrive was never made clear.
With existing Documentation (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/enterprise/cross-tenant-onedrive-migration?view=o365…) I had issues regarding a command – Set-SPOCrossTenantRelationship .
Is there any “soft” way to perform this operation?
Hi Mohamed, thanks for reaching out.
You are correct that the SharePoint Migration Tool (SMT) does not have direct support for migrating OneDrive content from one tenant to another.
To migrate OneDrive content from one tenant to another, you may need to consider third-party migration tools or services that offer support for cross-tenant migrations. These tools often provide features such as mapping user accounts, preserving permissions, and transferring files with metadata intact.
Some popular third-party migration tools that support cross-tenant OneDrive migrations are Sharegate, AvePoint, and BitTitan MigrationWiz.
