Power Automate or Microsoft Flow to move or copy from 2010 SharePoint items to SharePoint online
Not all. Norman Young
I tried different ways, but moving files and list from SP 2010 to SharePoint online is really difficult. Microsoft created a really good app Power Automate to create the flow to move/copy the lists but doesn't support SP 2010. That's little thing they could have made happen.
Thank you Norm for getting back to me to reply my questions.
Can you export the 2010 list to Excel? If so, Excel will let you export to SharePoint as a new list.
Norman Young, Yes, I did. It worked for simple list data only. Excel file converted People and Group, and choice data type to single line of texts. Had to manually correct those later in SPO after migrating. Struggling now to move the attachments in old SharePoint 2010 list. I could move the whole list folder to SPO using Windows Explorer but can't use it as a list either.
Nkhatiwada did you look into the SharePoint migration tool?

It says it supports 2010.

Yes, that was my final option to go with, but our IT hasn't given permission to use. Our SP admin team only has access to this tool.
