If you are using Modern Authentication (which is recommended), please refer to General Prerequisites and Source Platform Prerequisites sections in the Microsoft 365 to Google Workspace migration guide. For more information on Modern Authentication for Microsoft 365, please see this article. |
The following instructions are designed to assist you in migrating content from Office 365, if you are using Basic Authentication. Please note that CloudM recommend using Modern Authentication, as stated above.
Pre-requisites
-
The credentials (email and password) of an administrator account within your Office 365 environment.
-
If migrating files from OneDrive, you must have the sharepoint admin URL. This is something like: https://cloudmmigratedemo-admin.sharepoint.com.
-
Setup application impersonation or delegated access on both domains. Application impersonation is supported and should be used with all Enterprise plans of Office 365. Application impersonation is, however, unavailable in Small Business and Kiosk plans and as such delegated access is required to be set up. Details of how to set up either are available below.

Next, click the + symbol under 'Roles', select ApplicationImpersonation, click 'add' and the click 'OK'.
Next, click the + symbol under 'Members', select your administrator user, click 'add' and then click 'OK'.
Click 'Save' and you will see the impersonation role listed in admin roles. Application impersonation is now set up.
