00:00Hello viewers, today I am going to share the manual method to migrate Google Workspace to

00:14Office 365 account. We know most of the users love Office 365 but find it a bit difficult to

00:21do it from Google Workspace. This video helps you to move users and items from Workspace to

00:28Office 365. We will follow our official post to do all the steps one by one. I have already logged

00:36in with Google Workspace super admin account and Office 365 with global admin account.

00:51This is also a part of prerequisite. Now let's add domain and users to Office 365 account.

00:58After opening Office 365 account using admin credentials, go to Microsoft 365 admin center,

01:06click show all, settings, domains. Click add domain. Type the domain name and click on use this domain

01:15button. Now it is asking to verify your domain. You can choose any one method to verify the domain.

01:28I used Cloudflare authentication. If you also use Cloudflare then you can log in with the credentials

01:43to authorize the domain. Click on authorize button. The next step is to add the domain to the MX record.

01:53We will skip this step. We will skip this step to do it later after the syncing is complete.

01:59Domain setup is complete. Click on done button. You can see that the domain is listed on the

02:06Microsoft 365 account. Now let's add users. Click on users, active users.

02:13Click on add user. Fill in all the user details along with your domain name.

02:26Also set the password. If you leave it blank, it gets created automatically. I like it to set my

02:32password and copy it for later use. Click next. Assign licenses to users then next.

02:43Assign roles then next.

02:44Review the details and click on finish adding button.

03:04We have successfully added a user. Similarly, we will add all the remaining users to office 365.

03:14To check the user, click on domain filter and select your domain.

03:26As you can see, I have added two users to office 365.

03:33Once you are done, we will start the migration process.

03:36Now go back to the article for the next step.

03:41Now we will start the Google workspace to office 365 migration.

03:53Go to exchange admin center.

03:54Click on the migration tab.

04:04Click on add migration batch.

04:08Type a unique name for the batch.

04:12Make sure to select migration to exchange online in the migration path.

04:17Click on next.

04:18Migration type, Google workspace, then next.

04:26Now you will see two methods to finalize the Google workspace migration process.

04:33The automate method helps you to reduce some steps.

04:36However, sometimes it will generate error.

04:39Due to some permissions and creation.

04:41So, I suggest you follow the manual method if you are facing any error.

04:46To start automating process, click on the start button.

04:49Log in with your Google workspace super admin account.

04:56Click continue to confirm.

05:41Click on authorize button.

05:58Here, your automate process is completed.

06:02Now, you can skip the manual method and click on the next button to proceed.

10:20We have completed all the manual tasks.

10:29Now go back to exchange admin center and then click on next button.

10:34Enable the new migration endpoint and then select next.

10:38Type the migration endpoint name and click next without changing any default values.

10:44Type the admin email address and import the recently downloaded JSON file.

10:50You can see the endpoint is created successfully.

11:01Click next.

11:05Now we must create a CSV file.

11:09Open the Excel file and create two columns email address and username.

11:14Type all the user IDs and then save it in .csv file format.

11:20If your email addresses are same on both Google Workspace and Office 365,

11:39then create a column with email addresses as I have created.

11:42Add a CSV file.

11:47Browse the CSV file and then next.

11:48and then next.

12:10Select the target domain if you have multiple.

12:13Use filters to exclude folders or select items by time range.

12:21These items will be migrated from Google Workspace, click next, if you want to share

12:25the report with someone then click on type the name here otherwise skip it.

12:35Start migration batch, manually or automatically.

12:39I prefer automatically, finish migration batch, here I want to set automatically as well.

13:40Click on manage DNS.

13:43Click more options.

13:46The first option allows Microsoft to manage DNS record.

13:50Or choose second option to manage it on your own.

13:53Click on continue.

14:06Scroll down and you will see MX record, name record, and TXT record.

14:11You have to change this record in your domain hosting provider to change mail routing.

14:16I am not going to change right now because my migration is still running.

14:20So, you can keep it in mind to change it after migration is done.

14:28Let's see the migration status.

14:33It is provisioning now.

14:45Migration batch is syncing now.
