Hello

 

How can I use a flow to migrate my entire Dropbox (total 103GB) across to OneDrive for Business?

 

Thanks,

    Hi @chriffle,

     

    Yes, this is what I suggested in previous post.

    Despite the harsh conditions, it requires a lot of disk space.

    Thanks @v-bacao-msft - I think the ristricitons you mention may prevent me using Flow for this one - I guess I'll have to do the manually sync via client and then clear up my HDD later.

    Hi @chriffle,

     

    You could use the following method to transfer files, but there are a lot of restrictions.

    First of all, if it include a subfolder, we can't get the files contained in it, so we can't get all the files.

    In addition, if the file size exceeds 100M, it will exceed the Flow limit, and the execution efficiency will be very poor.

    You could consider using Dropbox client to sync files to your local computer and upload the entire folder to OneDrive for Business.

    This also keeps all file directory structures.

    Please take a try.

     

    Best Regards,
