How to migrate OneDrive for Business content from one Tenat to another
- Jul 07, 2023
Hi tcboeira,
You are correct that the SharePoint Migration Tool (SMT) does not have direct support for migrating OneDrive content from one tenant to another.To migrate OneDrive content from one tenant to another, you may need to consider third-party migration tools or services that offer support for cross-tenant migrations. These tools often provide features such as mapping user accounts, preserving permissions, and transferring files with metadata intact.
Some popular third-party migration tools that support cross-tenant OneDrive migrations are Sharegate, AvePoint, and BitTitan MigrationWiz.
I appreciate your understanding.

I don't know if I understood correctly. So forgive me for the following questions:
I, even the Global Administrator in both Tenants, cannot do this directly.
"Type": Copy from
"https://TENANT01-my.sharepoint.com/personal/USER_A/"
For
"https://TENANT021-my.sharepoint.com/personal/USER_A/"
If this is confirmed, it is somewhat frustrating for MS not to delve into this topic.
According to what I understood initially is that basically:
- Somehow, map the contents of OneDrive to a computer and from this computer, send it to some site on Sharepoint, using SMT
I went back to SMT, opened it and I have very few options. It basically just gives me options to perform from a File Server to Sharepoint Online.
I apologize if I didn't understand correctly, but if it's this understanding above, I didn't find out how to do it. Abusing goodwill, would you be able to exemplify me?
Thank you very much for your attention.
