Transfer Mapping

Learn about transfer mappings in Movebot

Transfer mapping are the building blocks for migrations in Movebot. After configuring a project, you will most likely want to add transfer mappings to it.

Transfer mappings tell Movebot which files and folders to move. Each transfer mapping is an isolated migration task that can be launched in isolation.

Example of Transfer Mappings:

SourceDestination

user:michael@couchdrop.io

user:michael@couch.io

teamdrive:/Shared

teamdrive:/Archive/Shared

mailbox:michael@couchdrop.io/Inbox

teamdrive:/Archive/Mail

Each user, team drive or folder that you want to transfer in Movebot needs to be covered by a transfer mapping.

Movebot treats everything like folders. Users, team drives, network drives, mailboxes; they all appear in Movebot as if they were folders. This simplifies adding mappings and means you can reorganise data between storage types.

Mappings can be added in a variety of ways. Learn more about how to add transfer mappings below:
