Deciding to move your data to Egnyte? See below on how to use Movebot to move your data. If you are looking to move multiple users or an organization we recommend using Movebot's Project Manager
1. Navigate to admin.movebot.io and select Create
2. Select your Source provider to be where you are moving your data from. See here how to configure any of our supported storage.
3. Select your Destination cloud provider from the dropdown provided, in this case, it would be Egnyte. Enter your Egnyte Domain (the prefix only, you do not require ".egnyte.com") and then click Link Storage.
4. Select the folders you wish to migrate across, if nothing is selected it will migrate all folders. Select the location you wish to move the folders to, if nothing is selected they will be moved into the top level (root directory).
5. Configure settings -
Note: For Egnyte we strongly recommend disabling 'Enable Post Upload Check' under advanced options.
| Name | A name for the migration |
| Email Notifications | Get emailed when your migration is completed |
| Delta Enabled | Only move files that have been modified since the last migration |
| Scheduled | Select a time to run the migration, or set a daily scheduled migration |
| Worker Nodes | Improve performance by adding extra Movebots to process your data |
Advanced Options - We recommend leaving these as the default
| Post Upload Check | When enabled, on completion of the migration we will run through and check that the files made it across. Some providers take time to process the files and having this enabled can make it seem that files have not been transferred and cause the migration to fail. |
| Filename Sanitization | Some providers such as OneDrive don't allow certain characters in file names, we will make amendments so that all your files make it across. |
| Doctype Conversion | Google file types such as .gdoc, .gsheet and .gslide aren't readable from other providers, we will automagically convert the files to .docx, .xlsx and .pptx during the migration. |
| Duplicate Santization | Google Drive allows multiple files and folders with the same name, with this enabled and if there are two or more files with the same name, we only move the most recently updated file. |
| Worker Threads | We highly recommend not touching this unless you know what you are doing. This is set to the best for your cloud provider by default. |
6. Save and Kickoff - Leave the heavy lifting to Movebot, we will email you once your migration is done.
