Migrate MS Teams Channel data

Question

Hello,

as Teams does not support converting a channel type, i need to recreate some channels in order to go from Standard to Shared.
Is there a way i can migrate all the information(discussions, documents, wiki, etc.) from the old channel to the new one ?

Hi @Bo

You cannot do this directly with MS Teams functionality at this time.

1) You can use a product called ShareGate:

2) You can share your feedback with the MS Teams team:

Thank you so much @Dillon Silzer !

for us it's a one time thing (for now) so a 15 day trial of Sharegate might do the trick, i'm going to give it a try.

Have a good one !
