What are the Microsoft native ways to migrate user identities, Devices, Apps, Configuration policies, profiles and all other settings from one Intune tenant to another tenant so we can migrate it and make sure our IT infra is moved to brand new tenant?

Which would also be included VMs' Servers, Network components, Databases, Apps hosted in our parent organization cloud and hybrid infrastructure so how to do it?

    For identities, there is no such thing from Microsoft, as far as I know. For Intune, you can export and import some objects, but not everything. Most objects in Intune are not exportable. Also in Azure, I think virtual hard disks inside Virtual Machines are not exportable. Again, in Intune, entra joined machine cannot be migrated as is to another tenant. You would need to disjoin them manually and re-join them to new tenant, or re-install them.

    @Mytoast Admin Thanks for posting in our Q&A.

    For this issue, in theory, we need to export some things from the old tenant and import it into the new tenant, and then have the user unenroll their device from the old tenant and re-enroll in the new tenant.

    I haven't done anything like that, but I have done a lot of research. I find that there is someone migrate tenant to tenant. We can read the following link as a reference. https://www.reddit.com/r/Intune/comments/dmrlvv/tenant_to_tenant_migration_strategy_update/ Note: Non-Microsoft link, just for the reference.

    Hope it will help.
