Hi,
We created a O365 tenant with a domain "abcd.edu" and assigned all our users credentials online (azure AD) because we were not ready to migrate the on-prem maiboxes which are on another domain abcd.ac.in. We are now considering an express migration of all the on prem (abcd.ac.in) accounts to the cloud and ultimately use azure ad as source of authority.
Once we are in the cloud, we would like to use the abcd.ac.in upn for all users and either merge or retire the abcd.edu domain. We would ideally like to merge it in someway to avoid recreating all the other resources including teams with the new UPN. We have adequate licenses for both usernames to coexist for a while.
Any thoughts or resources I can read?

Thanks @Thijs Lecomte . If I get you right, the steps would be to do a soft match first and use on-prem credentials in step 1. Then migrate the users to the cloud and stop using Azure AD connect? I am trying to be sure that soft matching does not prevent me from passing the source of authority back to Azure AD once my migration is over.

The covid situation here is quite bad and I got caught with my clinical responsibilities for the last week.
@Thijs Lecomte we are hoping to manage all users on AAD once the migration is done. No role for AD after the migration.
