Create a new PowerShell Command to use the Export metadata feature
Some users would need to be able to generate the Excel Spreadsheet for their metadata using PowerShell. When automating a complex migration, having an export for all the lists with a foreach loop would be a powerful way to take full control of the data during the migration project.

Migrating MicroFeed List
Dear sir/madam,
At a customer, we are planning to migrate from SharePoint on-premises to SharePoint Online.
They have a lot of MicroFeed lists and they would like to migrate the content.
On your website, I see this is not supported: https://support.share-gate.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000600227-Copying-the-content-from-to-a-MicroFeed-list-is-not-supported. Do you know if there is a workaround for this?
With kind regards,
Jim van Leeuwen

Migrate Nintex Forms Associated with Flexi Task
Currently Sharegate fails to migrate Nintex forms associated with Flexi tasks with an error that 'Nintex Workflow for Office 365 does not allow task forms to be custom'.
Since Nintex now allows the form customization, can we enable Sharegate to move it?

Migration from Exchange Public Folders
Migration of exchange public folders with Sharegate.
19 votesThough we’ve had support for Exchange Public Folders in the past, we decided to remove it and not support it with our tool.
The intricacies of Exchange and especially Public Folders migration can be quite complicated. We did not feel that we were bringing a good experience to our customers.
Though one should never say never, so we’ll keep you posted if there is an update. Thanks for taking the time!

Migration of empty/non-valid values and choice fields
It would be nice if Sharegate could migrate lists that have either empty values for required fields and choice values that are no longer in the list settings for the choice field . This feature would inventory all choice and required fields, enable the Allow adding to choice values, remove required field, migrate the data, and then disable the allow adding to choice values and enable the required fields if applicable. This would save time for the admin who has to write/run scripts to take care of this.
