#1 OneDrive Migration Tool

Overview

During mergers or divestures, you commonly need the ability to move users OneDrive accounts into a new Microsoft 365 tenant.

With Cross-tenant OneDrive migration, tenant administrators can use familiar tools like SharePoint Online PowerShell to transition users into their new organization. 

Prerequisites and Settings

Microsoft SharePoint Online Powershell

Confirm you have the most recent version installed.

Turn off service encryption with Customer Key enabled

Confirm that the source OneDrive tenant doesn't have Service encryption with Microsoft Purview Customer Key enabled. If enabled on Source tenant, the migration will fail.

Source OneDrive accounts must be set to Read/Write. If set to Read only, they will fail.

Path Size Limits

Microsoft limits the amount of characters in a path to not exceed 400 characters.

This is the full path limit, not just the file name. In planning your migrations, review the length of OneDrive URL names in your target tenant. Failure often occurs when files or folder paths from the source, combined with the OneDrive URL on the target exceed the 400-character path limit.
