files pile up quietly for years. Then something forces the issue, usually one of these:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">You&#8217;re moving <strong>off on-premises Exchange<\/strong> and <strong>into Exchange Online<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Employees have years of <strong>email sitting in local Outlook Data Files<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Backups saved as <strong>PST need to be restored into live mailboxes<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">New hires or reassigned staff need <strong>access to old mailbox data<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Compliance or security teams want <strong>mail out of unmanaged local files<\/strong> and into the tenant.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In each case, the goal is the same: get the data into the right mailbox, keep the folder structure, and avoid duplicates.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Method_1_Import_PST_to_Office_365_Via_Classic_Outlook\"><\/span>Method 1: Import PST to Office 365 Via Classic Outlook<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>This works for one user or a handful of files. It needs <strong>Classic Outlook for Windows<\/strong>. The New Outlook doesn&#8217;t support direct PST import.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Open Classic Outlook<\/strong> and sign in with the Microsoft 365 account.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Afterward, go to <strong>File &gt;&gt; Open &amp; Export &gt;&gt; Import\/Export<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Choose <strong>Import from another program or file<\/strong>, then <strong>Outlook Data File (.pst)<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Browse to the PST file &gt;&gt; choose how duplicates should be handled.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Select your <strong>Microsoft 365 mailbox<\/strong> as the destination.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Click <strong>Finish<\/strong> and wait for the import and sync to complete.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>It&#8217;s free and simple, but it&#8217;s one user and one file at a time. The data also goes through the local Outlook profile before syncing, so it&#8217;s slow for large files. Microsoft documents the client-side steps on Microsoft Suppor.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Method_2_Upload_Import_PST_to_Office_365_with_Microsoft_Purview_Network_Upload\"><\/span>Method 2: Upload Import PST to Office 365 with Microsoft Purview Network Upload<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>This is Microsoft&#8217;s recommended route for admins. You upload PST files to Azure storage, map them to mailboxes in a CSV file, and Microsoft&#8217;s import service does the rest.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Assign<\/strong> the Mailbox Import Export role to the admin account.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Create <\/strong>a new PST import job in the <strong>Microsoft Purview portal<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Then, you have to copy the <strong>Azure SAS URL<\/strong> the job generates.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Upload <\/strong>the PST files with AzCopy.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Thereafter, you need to <strong>build &amp; upload the CSV mapping file<\/strong> (PST file name to target mailbox).<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Validate <\/strong>the mapping and fix any errors.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Start <\/strong>the import job.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Microsoft&#8217;s own walkthroughs are worth reading before you begin:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><em><a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/purview\/importing-pst-files-to-office-365\">Learn about importing PST files to Microsoft 365<\/a><\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/purview\/use-network-upload-to-import-pst-files\">Use network upload to import PST files<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Limitations_of_the_Manual_Method\"><\/span>Limitations of the Manual Method<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Network Upload is reliable when everything lines up. The trouble is getting everything to line up:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Setup takes real time: roles, SAS URLs, AzCopy, then CSV preparation.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">With many PST files, the CSV becomes the weak point. One typo in a file name or mailbox address, and validation fails.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Large PST files take hours to upload, and the import runs after that.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">There&#8217;s no easy way to import selectively, for example only the last three years of mail.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Troubleshooting means reading job logs, not clicking through a clean interface.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For 10 users this is manageable.
