SharePoint Migration of On Premise Subsites to SP online 2020
Hi Team, We are currently migrating Site Contents from earlier Sharepoint to SharePoint Online. (Using ShareGate Tool) Source: https://kochind.sharepoint.com/sites/mlx_global_procurement/GPSharedSe...
You will find that migrating the permissions with ShareGate(or any tool) is a bit of a lottery, reason being is that AD groups and users may not exist in SharePoint Online. You can map users that don't exist, I have not tried it with groups. Generally historic permissions are not always right or a a bit of a mess.
In every migration that I have done I have taken the opportunity to start a fresh and reset the permissions with confirmation from the site owners about what they should be.
