Certificate Requirement for Mailbox Permission Migration

When You Need a Certificate
If you're using Client ID, Tenant ID, and Client Secret authentication and want to migrate mailbox permissions, a certificate upload is required as part of your Azure App Registration setup.

Steps to Set It Up

  1. Download the certificate
    Download the required .cer certificate file using the link below:
    Download Certificate
  2. Go to your Azure App Registration
    Sign in to the Azure Portal, navigate to Azure Active Directory >> App Registrations, & select the app you're using for this migration.
  3. Upload the certificate
    In the left menu, go to Certificates & Secrets >> Certificates, click Upload certificate, and select the .cer file you downloaded.
  4. Save and continue
    Once uploaded, the certificate will be linked to your App Registration, enabling secure migration of mailbox permissions.

If You're Using Modern Authentication
No certificate upload is needed. When Modern Authentication is used, mailbox permissions are migrated automatically - no extra configuration required.

Authentication Method Certificate Required?
Client ID + Tenant ID + Client Secret   Yes
Modern Authentication   No

Key Features of SharePoint Online Migration Tool

mail-migration

Site-to-Site Migration

Move specific SharePoint sites without touching the rest of your environment. This works well when only certain sites need to move right now. Instead of migrating everything at once, teams can target exactly what's needed. The associated content, libraries, and pages tied to that site move together. This keeps the process focused, reducing both migration time and unnecessary risk.

bulk-file

Bulk SharePoint Migration

Handling one site at a time becomes unmanageable once numbers start growing. This feature lets multiple sites move together in a single coordinated batch. Instead of repeating the same steps site after site, everything runs together. Administrators save hours that would otherwise go into manual repetition and oversight. Larger organizations especially benefit when dozens of sites need to be migrated.

Preview-img

Folder and File Mapping

Every organization structures SharePoint differently, and destinations rarely mirror the source exactly. Mapping lets teams define where each source folder should land at the destination. This avoids a messy dump of files that no longer make sense together. Instead of manually moving things later, the structure gets defined before migration starts. The result is a destination that reflects real planning, not random placement.

email-migration-img

Selective Migration

Not everything sitting in SharePoint needs to move to the new environment. This feature allows specific sites, libraries, or folders to be chosen individually. Outdated files, unused libraries, or irrelevant data can simply be left behind. Teams get to decide exactly what qualifies for migration and what doesn't. This keeps the new environment relevant, organized, and free from old clutter.

data-img

Preserve Data Structure

Folder hierarchies often took years of decisions, corrections, and organizational effort to build. Losing that structure during migration means employees must relearn where everything lives. This feature keeps folders and files arranged exactly the way they originally were. Nothing gets flattened, renamed, or scattered during the transfer to the destination. People can log in afterward and find things exactly where they expect them.

save-img

Incremental Migration

Migrations rarely happen in one sitting, especially with large or active environments. This feature detects and moves only data that's new or recently changed. There's no need to repeat an entire migration just to catch updates. This saves time, reduces resource strain, & avoids duplicate content at the destination. It's especially useful for phased migrations that stretch across several days or weeks.

filter-img

Migration Filters

Sometimes only certain types of data are relevant for a given migration. Filters let administrators narrow results using criteria like date, size, or file type. This means outdated files or oversized items can be excluded from the start. Instead of migrating everything and cleaning up later, filtering happens upfront instead. This gives administrators tighter control over exactly what moves and what stays.

restricted-permissions-img

Permission Migration

Access rules matter just as much as the files and folders themselves. This feature carries supported permissions along with the content during migration. Without this, administrators would need to manually reassign access after every transfer. That manual process is slow, error-prone, & risky for sensitive company data. Migrating permissions alongside content keeps access control consistent from day one onward.

onedrive-img

SharePoint to OneDrive Migration

Moving content from SharePoint to OneDrive doesn't have to mean manual copying & lost folder structure. This migration moves document libraries directly into OneDrive while keeping everything organized. Whether shifting personal workspaces or restructuring how teams store data, the process stays straightforward, accurate, & free from the guesswork of doing it by hand.

cloud-migration-img

Migration Reports

Once a migration runs, administrators need clarity on what actually happened. Reports outline which items completed successfully, were skipped, or failed outright. This removes the guesswork of manually checking each site or folder afterward. Failed items can be identified quickly and addressed without delaying the entire project. Clear reporting gives administrators confidence and accountability throughout the migration process.

save-img

Migration Health

Migrations don't always run smoothly, & problems are easier to fix early than after they pile up. This feature keeps an eye on the connection between source & destination throughout the transfer. Administrators can spot interruptions or failed connections as they happen instead of discovering them later. Catching issues in real time means less troubleshooting & once the migration is already underway.

save-img

Migration Region

Where data physically moves through matters, especially for companies bound by compliance or data residency rules. This feature lets administrators pick the data center region used during migration instead of relying on a default location. Choosing a nearby or compliant region can also improve transfer speed and reliability. It gives teams control over both performance and where their organization's data is allowed to travel.

Deduplication Suite for SharePoint

During SharePoint migrations or regular usage, duplicate files and documents can build up across sites, libraries, and folders - leading to wasted storage and confusion over which version is the correct one.

What it offers:

  • Detects and removes duplicate files and documents across SharePoint sites and libraries.
  • Works seamlessly during migration, so only unique content gets transferred.
  • Reduces unnecessary storage usage on your SharePoint environment.
  • Prevents version confusion by eliminating redundant copies.
  • Preserves the integrity & metadata of original files during the process.
