Migrate content to OneDrive for Business<\/h2>\n

OneDrive makes sure you always have all your important content on all your devices and enables multiple people to collaborate and co-author a single document at the same time. Gone are the days of not having that document right when you need it or managing multiple versions of the same document. In order to facilitate this availability, we have included a new Migrate content to OneDrive for Business<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0task option to migrate contents from file servers, network file shares, local computer and user’s personal drives to OneDrive for Business seamlessly.<\/p>\n

\"Migrate<\/a><\/p>\n

Migrate content to OneDrive for Business\u2019\u00a0task option has detailed provision to migrate contents of the following user accounts to OneDrive, as stated below:<\/p>\n

Specific user account<\/strong><\/p>\n

Allows the individual user of the application to migrate his\/her contents to their respective OneDrive storage. Using this option, any user can migrate their contents to his\/her OneDrive location.<\/p>\n

Select set of user accounts<\/strong><\/p>\n

Allows the *user account<\/strong>* to migrate user folder contents for a set of users to migrate their contents to their respective OneDrive storage. Using this option, a single user using the application can group a set of users and migrate their contents.<\/p>\n

All users in the personal site collection<\/strong><\/p>\n

Allows the *user account<\/strong>* to migrate user folder contents of ALL users to migrate their contents to their respective OneDrive storage. Using this option, a single user account can group a set of users and migrate their contents.<\/p>\n

It also includes the following task options (Explorer \/ Batch File mode) to migrate contents to OneDrive:<\/p>\n

\"Explorer<\/a><\/p>\n

Vyapin\u2019s Sandbox Solution<\/h2>\n

We have introduced a \u2018Sandbox Solution\u2019 (which is equivalent to Dockit web service) that allows you to update SharePoint default columns like Created Date, Created By, Modified Date, Modified By, Approval Status and Approver Comments when migrating contents to\u00a0SharePoint Online<\/strong>\u00a0in Office 365 seamlessly. The sandbox solution also optimizes the migration to SharePoint Online platform in certain migration scenarios.<\/p>\n

To activate the Sandbox solution, you can use the WSP file [Vyapin.SandBox.wsp<\/strong>] available in Dockit product installation package<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"activate<\/a><\/p>\n

You can refer\u00a0Page 9\u00a0in the\u00a0product installation guide\u00a0to know more about\u00a0how to activate the sandbox solution in SharePoint Online.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Column Mapping<\/h2>\n

We have simplified the Column Mapping feature in Dockit v9.0 by creating a new Column Mapping step in Dockit task wizard. Using this Column Mapping step, you can seamlessly map the File Properties, Custom Properties (File Properties apart from Pre-defined file properties in Dockit), Metadata file (Metadata File Columns), Use Function (Function Builder) under\u00a0Source Column<\/strong>\u00a0section as shown below.<\/p>\n

Dockit will now read the custom document properties from the source file (regardless of the document format) and assign them to the respective columns in SharePoint. This feature will eliminate the need to extract all metadata from document properties of all file formats that are added in the Items to Import step using external methods and store them in the metadata file (to be used in the migration task).<\/p>\n

\"Column<\/a><\/p>\n

In case, if there is any error in assigning the source column values to the target SharePoint columns, Dockit will assign the alternate value (specified in Default value section) as shown below to the target SharePoint columns. This feature will avoid the partial migration of contents without metadata.<\/p>\n

\"assign<\/a><\/p>\n

Perform Incremental Migration<\/h2>\n

We have moved the Incremental Migration options from Import Conditions step (in DocKIT v8.7) to Items to Import step in Dockit v9.0 and simplified the feature with new date range options to seamlessly migrate only the newly added\/modified contents. To perform incremental migration<\/a><\/strong>, you can select the desired option under Incremental Migration section in \u201cItems to Import\u201d step as shown below:<\/p>\n

\"Incremental<\/a><\/p>\n

You can identify the Dockit tasks that you have created to perform Incremental Migration using the delta icon <\/strong>\"delta-icon\"\u00a0in the Task Manager window.<\/p>\n
