  3. Support for incremental Teams copy via PowerShell

    Is it possible to add incremental support to the Copy-Team cmdlet in ShareGate PowerShell. The initial copy is supported, allowing bulk migrations using e.g. CSV-input, but performing incremental migrations currently requires the UI where each incremental needs to be started separately.

    With the launch of ShareGate Desktop 15.3, it is now possible to copy only specific channels in Teams migration using PowerShell. These channels can be either copied as a new Team or into an existing Team.

    More information can be found in our PowerShell documentation: https://support-desktop.sharegate.com/hc/en-us/sections/360009061071-Copy-teams

  5. Merge teams - Copy content and conversations from one team to another

    My organisation has one very large tenant and a small test environment we hardly ever use. Will it eventually be possible to copy the contents of a team to another one in the same tenant?

  7. Keep name for scheduled tasks when editing options

    It's very good to be able to rename tasks thanks to last November 2020 update.
    I really love this new feature.

    But when I need to update a scheduled task setting, once update has been done and saved, the task's name is being lost and I have to rename it again.

    Maybe it's an "incorrect" usage from my side, but when I do so, I have to do a 3 steps action to update my scheduled task :
    1 : open "rename task and edit schedule", to copy / paste my task name in a notepad before any update, then…

  9. Additional note that the SharePoint group is also deleted in SharePoint and can not be restored

    We have received feedback from one of our clients.

    During the migration "Copy structure" SharePoint groups were accidentally deleted in the site objects of the source site (right click -> delete permanently). Our client was not aware that the SharePoint groups are also deleted in SharePoint.
    Our client only wanted to remove the groups that should not be migrated.
    Unfortunately, the SharePoint groups cannot be restored.
    Our client had the following suggestion to present the deletion in a more understandable way:
    An additional note that the SharePoint group is also deleted in SharePoint and can not be restored.

  10. Rename scheduled tasks

    I rely on being able to rename my tasks. Otherwise, it's generic like "Copy 100 items from Documents to Documents". I need to know what site/subsite it is, and so on. It appears there is no way to rename a scheduled task, even when it's a recurring one. Only the migration report generated after can be renamed.

  11. Migrate modern MS Teams Wiki pages

    Migrate modern MS Teams Wiki pages. As of right now, we can migrate the .mht file in the background but we cannot re-establish it as a modern wiki page at the destination.

  13. Option to apply "restore inheritance" to sub-folders

    The problem I have is that this particular library has multiple folders and each with many more child folders.

    It would be good to have the option to apply to sub-folders

  17. Support the migration of mega menus in SPO modern

    Since January 2019, there's a new element in the SPO modern environment called mega menus which is a re-skin of the site navigation. They are not currently being migrated on a 1:1 basis.

  18. Replace the X button with a Save button in the Copy options screen

    The x in this “Copy Options” dialog box appears to be a Cancel button, not a Save button. ShareGate is normally so on top of its UI decisions – it’s good to know that you’re at least somewhat human. If in a later iteration you could change this to a Save button, us full mortals would be so much more deeply in love with you and your product!

  19. Migrate Microsoft Teams Chatrooms/Channels

    Support migration of Microsoft Teams
    -Conversations
    -Channels
    -Content
    -Tabs

    Original post:

    We need to do a tenant to tenant migration of Office 365. Your tool looks like it could aid with that, but my question is about Microsoft Teams migration. Aside from the Teams content that is in SharePoint, I have not found any supported method to other content from teams such as chats and channel conversation. Is Sharegate working on this?

  20. Fix date jump when editing scheduled migration

    A couple of times now I've scheduled a migration to run later the same day. Then I decide I need to change the start time only, not the date. If I I go to the Scheduled tab, edit the schedule for the migration, the date automatically changes to the following day as soon as the schedule window opens. This has screwed me at least a couple of times because I didn't notice it since I only changed the time and didn't touch the date. This only happens when editing the schedule for a migration scheduled for today, not for migrations…
