Get started

To get started:

Go to the Migration center in the SharePoint admin center, and sign in with an account that has admin permissions for your organization.

Make sure that you have:

  • Access to the destination: You must either be a global admin or OneDrive/SharePoint admin to the Microsoft 365 tenant where you want to migrate your content.

  • Access to the source: Have Egnyte account credentials that have read access to any Egnyte user account you plan to migrate.

  • Prerequisites installed: Make sure you have the necessary prerequisites installed.

  • Request a rate increase from Egynte. Your new Egnyte application lets you connect to your Egnyte account. However, it's likely that it won't allow you migrate content to Microsoft 365 due to the limits Egnyte imposes on new applications. Sign into your Egynte developer account to determine your existing rate limit. Then contact Egynte support to submit your request.

Sample request email:

Subject: Egnyte connection
Text: I would like the user rate limits increased for my application [enter application name] to [x calls] per second and [y calls] per day.
