    Elis Colosio just recently migrated from Google Workspace to Microsoft 365. I guess the SharePoint migration manager can't transfer the ownership correctly until you have migrated your Google Mails to Microsoft 365 and updated the DNS records.

      njader I've actually migrated also the email for the users that I'm testing, but the DNS record would be the last thing after I move everything. Are there any specific DNS record that enables permission update??

      Thanks for the answer!

        I actually did the same. Migrated a single user's email and google drive to onedrive for testing but sharing permissions didn't copy over. Microsoft migration documentation states that drive migration should be the last thing, so I'm not sure if the DNS record has something to do with the sharing permission. Glad that it works on my end.
