On Demand Migration Current - Administrator Guide

Granular Permissions

This section lists the minimum permissions required for Azure AD Administrative accounts to perform specific On Demand Migration tasks. You can use PowerShell to assign these roles to your Azure AD administrative account. All of the listed roles are required, but you can select any of the roles separated by -OR-.

Using Collections

You can use collections to streamline the migration process. There are two approaches:

• You can select discovered accounts and create a new collection for them
• You can create a new empty collection and then populate it with discovered accounts using comma-separated CSV file.

To create a new collection based on selected accounts:

1. Click Accounts on necessary migration project
2. Select accounts you want to combine into the collection. You can use search for filtering out the accounts by certain criteria or simply hand-pick the individual accounts or mailboxes from the list.
3. Click +New Collection in the top right corner of the list view and enter the informative collection name. Click Save to add this collection to the project.

To create a new empty collection and then populate it with accounts:

1. On the Accounts migration dashboard click More Actions | Add To Collection.
2. Enter the informative collection name. Click Save to add this collection to the project.
3. Populate it using comma-separated values (CSV) file as specified in Populating Collections from File.

Populating from File

You can populate any existing collection using a comma-separated values (CSV) file with account attributes.

To populate collection from CSV file

1. Prepare a comma-separated values (CSV) file with data of discovered accounts you want to add to the collection. File can contain accounts that have not been discovered, but these accounts won"t be added to the collection. One of the columns should contain the user principal names (UPNs). For example:

userPrincipalName,email,objectID

Example@testexample.onmicrosoft.com,Example@testdomain.com,d6801a8b-5cb1-48f4-9757-4465564c5c63

2. Select a collection you want to populate on Dashboard and click it to open the Collection Dashboard
3. Click Fill from File to populate the collection with discovered objects you specified in the file created on Step 1.
4. Click Browse to open the comma-separated CSV file created on Step 1.
5. Browse for file and click Open. Selected file name appears next to the Browse button.

6. Click Populate to populate the collection.

The collection is populated. You can see added objects on the Collection Dashboard.

Exporting Mapping for Selected Objects

To export the mapping as a comma-separated values (CSV) file, select objects in the grid and click More Actions | Export.

You can customize this file and use it as a base for manual mapping.
