Modified By and Created By with SharePoint Migration Tool v2

Iron Contributor

I am testing the Microsoft SharePoint Migration Tool v2 for a migration from a file share.

 

When I migrate a .docx file, the Modified By and Created By fields are migrated.

When I migrate a .doc file, "Administrator" shows up in the Modified By and Created By fields, even though the author is the same as for the .docx file.

 

What am I missing?

 

In both cases the Modified date is migrated correctly.

Thanks Helen, I'll do that.

 

I took a quick look at the log, I was surprised to read "No user mapping file specified" even though I entered the path under settings.
