How can I apply filters?

Using Filters in Cloudsfer Migration

Cloudsfer allows you to apply filters to your migration plans, enabling you to transfer files based on specific criteria. This feature helps streamline your migration by excluding unnecessary data.

You can currently filter content by:

  • File Size
  • Date Created
  • Date Modified

Note: Filtering by file type will be available soon.

You may apply multiple filters simultaneously. In such cases, an AND relationship is applied—only files that meet all selected criteria will be migrated.

Availability

The Filters feature is available with Business Plans.
To purchase a plan, register and log in to your Cloudsfer account, then go to Pricing >> Business Plans or visit https://app.cloudsfer.com/User/Plans.

Applying Filters in the Migration Wizard

During the New Migration Plan Wizard, after selecting your source and target systems, the Optional Settings menu will appear. Here, you can choose to apply filters.

Available Filter Options:

  • Max File Size
    Migrates files smaller than the specified size (excluding files equal to or larger than the entered value).
    Example: "1,000MB" will migrate files < 1,000MB.

  • Minimum File Size
    Migrates files larger than the specified size (excluding files equal to or smaller than the entered value).
    Example: "1,000MB" will migrate files > 1,000MB.

  • Migrate Files Created After
    Migrates files created after the specified date (excluding the date itself).
    Example: "01/31/2015" will migrate files created after that date.

  • Migrate Files Created Before
    Migrates files created before the specified date (excluding the date itself).
    Example: "01/31/2015" will migrate files created before that date.

  • Migrate Files Modified After
    Migrates files modified after the specified date (excluding the date itself).
    Example: "01/31/2015" will migrate files modified after that date.

  • Migrate Files Modified Before
    Migrates files modified before the specified date (excluding the date itself).
    Example: "01/31/2015" will migrate files modified before that date.

Once you've configured your filters, click Save & Continue to proceed.

Additional Notes

  • Filters can be added or edited if a migration is saved for later.
  • Filters apply only to files, not folders.
  • Filters do not behave as delta/incremental migration. The full folder hierarchy is created, but only files matching the filters are transferred.
  • Filter capabilities may vary depending on the source system.
    Example: Filters available when migrating from Box to Box Enterprise may differ.
