What We Migrate

The following content associated with Microsoft 365 Groups without Teams functionality can be migrated:

Objects and content types
Object Support Notes
Group settings ✔  
Inbox folder and Calendar from the group mailbox ✔ this content is always migrated
OneDrive Shared Library ✔ OneDrive Shared Library must be created and associated with a group in the same SharePoint site.
Planner ✔  
SharePoint site ✔ the entire site is migrated

Prerequisites

NOTE: These prerequisites are generic to all M365 Groups. See Teams - Prerequisites for prerequisites about M365 Groups that linked to Teams.

Verify the following requirements are met before migrating Microsoft M365 Groups. If these actions are not performed, discovery, provision and migration tasks will fail or some data might be lost!

The following consents must be granted before M365 Groups migration can be started

  • Migration - Basic
  • Migration - Mailbox Migration
  • Migration - SharePoint - Minimal for the source tenant, and Migration - SharePoint - Full for the source and target tenants. Migration - SharePoint is a legacy permission set and should be replaced with either the Minimal or Full permission sets.
  • Migration - Teams - Minimal for the source tenant, and Migration - Teams - Full for the source and target tenants. Migration - Teams is a legacy permission set and should be replaced with either the Minimal or Full permission sets.

TIP: If the consents are not granted or expired, Discover Groups action is disabled and the following notification is displayed: Grant admin consent to the following Migration sub modules on the Tenants page for both source and target tenants: Basic, SharePoint, and Teams. Open the Tenants page and grant the necessary Required Consents and Permissions so that the product can access the source and target tenants. You will be redirected to the Microsoft web site for granting admin consent. Once admin consent is granted, you can start discovering Teams.

  • Accounts must be matched or migrated before migrating groups.
  • Images, media files and documents referenced in one-on-one or group chats are stored in your OneDrive for Business folder. They must be migrated using the On Demand Migration for OneDrive service, before you migrate the chats.

Required permissions

See the On Demand Migration - Permissions Reference Guide for details.

Temporary Migration Service accounts

  • It is recommended to create or use source and target temporary Migration Service accounts.
  • The temporary Migration Service accounts should be granted the Global Administrator or Teams Administrator role on the tenants for which these account are used. The temporary Migration Service accounts in the source and target tenant should have Teams license from the Microsoft 365 admin center.
  • Do not change your temporary Migration Service accounts before completing the migration project.
  • You must remove the source and target temporary Migration Service accounts for safety reasons after the migration is completed. These accounts can be removed from teams as described in Finalizing the Migration.

The target temporary Migration Service account is used in (but not limited to) the following scenarios:

  • It creates and owns the provisioned target M365 Groups.
  • It is added to all target teams and Microsoft 365 Groups as a member and an owner.
  • It is used to perform the M365 Groups migration.

Discovering Groups from a File

When you have a large set of groups but you want to migrate a subset of those groups, you can start the discovery process by using a CSV file. The CSV file lets you specify the groups that you want to discover and ignore the rest. This is a two-step process:

  4. Click Export and then click Export groups in this list. A Groups.csv file will be downloaded to your computer.

  5. Edit the CSV and retain the groups you want to discover that are not associated with Teamsand delete the rest. You can filter that data based on the Has Teams column to get a list of groups that are not associated with teams. If you retain a row that references a group associated with a team, the group will be ignored during discovery. Then retain the Group ID and Group name columns.

  6. Save the CSV file. You may rename the file if needed.
