Google Workspace (Google Drive)

Start migration

  1. Prepare a secret, link a domain, and prepare employee accounts if you haven't already done so.
  2. Make sure that each employee has enough space on their Yandex Disk to migrate their files from the source server.
  3. Go to the Migration tab in the left menu.
  4. Select what you want to migrate: click Migrate files.
  5. Select where you want to migrate files from: click Google Workspace.
  6. Upload the secret file and click Next.
  7. Specify the accounts for which you want to start migration:

    1. Download the CSV file template.
    2. Following the example, add the usernames of employees for whom you want to migrate files.
      Note. You can add up to 20,000 usernames.
    3. Save the CSV file in UTF-8 encoding (in Microsoft Excel, click Save as → CSV-UTF8).
      Attention. If you save the file in a different encoding, it won't be recognized correctly.
    4. Click Upload CSV and select your file.
  8. Click Start migration.

    The status will change to Migrating.

    If some of the files are already on Yandex Disk (for example, they were moved earlier), the dates when they were last changed on Google Drive and Yandex Disk are compared, and the older versions are replaced with the newer ones.

Note. If you plan to run multiple migrations, save the log file before each run (you can download it by clicking Details). If errors occur during migration, you'll be able to track at which run they appeared.
