Copper Contributor

i have done a tenant to tenant move. Now I try to move the sharepoit data, but the url is invalid.get the message:

This site is not supported. Enter a site URL for SharePoint 2010, 2013, or 2016.

URL: https://xxxxxxxxxxxx.sharepoint.com/sites/xxxxxxxx

 

What is going wrong?

@peerwbcan you provide a bit more information on what actually happens and where you get the error, are you still using the old tenant URL or using the new Tenant URL.. are you able to find the site on the Sharepoint Admin Center...

SPMT is used for SharePoint Server/File Server -> SharePoint Online. From the sounds of it, you're trying to use it for SharePoint Online -> SharePoint Online which is not supported.

A third party tool like Sharegate would be worth investigating for tenant to tenant content migration.

@Trevor Seward  i realize now that sharepoint migration tool is not working.

I'am using Mover now.

shargate is too expensive for my company

Thanks folks

Are you using mover to do site collection migrations between 2 Online tenants ?
SharePoint migration tools often generate problems. It needs a hybrid human/automated approach. Prepping ahead of migration also helps: https://akitais.com/news/how-to-approach-a-sharepoint-migration/
