Power Platform migration tool
What is the best way to migrate Power Apps, Flow and Power BI from one O365 tenant to another? I couldn't find any document explaining migration approach. Is there any third party tool available? ...

It gives me immense pleasure to inform you all that we have successfully launched the 1st release of SharePoint Workflow to Power Automate Migration tool (beta version) which is going to be a definite game changer. This tool would give clients the desired flexibility as it has the in-built capability to automatically migrate both SharePoint designer workflows as well as OOTB built-in SharePoint workflows to Power Automate & therefore can save a significant effort , cost & time. This tool would also enhance migration accuracy & therefore can certainly be a real value proposition to the client in terms of both effort , cost & time.
This tool would automatically connect & loop through all the SharePoint designer workflows in order to retrieve all the triggers, actions as well as conditions , associated with the workflows & ultimately would intelligently chose the right Power Automate actions to transform them. Currently we do not have apple to apple mappings between every SharePoint designer workflow action & corresponding Power Automate action. Therefore this tool would do the mapping & transformation indigenously to create the exact workflow structure in power automate. Also it would be an interactive experience for the users as they would be able to see a detailed progress status of the running migration job. Even on successful execution of the migration job, a comprehensive report / dashboard would get generated, reflecting the number of successful & failed migrations along with appropriate error messages.
This tool would even support bulk creation of workflows in Power Automate. For example, if there is a requirement to create 100 approval workflows (say) against 100 different list / library, the tool would create a generic workflow template & accordingly would ask the user to key in the count (100 in our example). Ultimately based on user input, the tool would automatedly create the desired number of approval workflows at one go. Once the workflows are created in Power Automate portal, few minor manual adjustments could be needed to ultimately get them running.
