Version Migration - new feature
Versions Migration
This guide will help you understand how to use the Versions feature in Cloudsfer to preserve file history during migration.
Whenever a file is edited or managed in the source system, a new version is created while previous versions are retained. Cloudsfer supports migrating these versions across various platforms.

Cloudsfer currently supports version migration between the following systems:
- Dropbox
- Box
- Google Drive
- BIM360
- SharePoint Online
- More systems coming soon!
How to Enable Version Migration
To migrate file versions:
- Start a migration.
- Select your source system and choose the folder you wish to migrate.
- Select your target system and destination folder.
- In Step 3: Optional Settings, click on the Versions tab.
Version Migration Options
You can choose from the following options:
-
Maintain Latest Version Only (Default)
Transfers only the most recent version of each file. -
Maintain Latest & Older Versions
Transfers the latest version along with previous versions. -
All Versions
Transfers all available versions of each file. -
Maintain Specific Number of Versions

Note: This option may require delta migration behavior.
Managing Versions in Migration Plan Details
You can also configure version settings through the Migration Plan Details section after the plan is created.
Important Notes
- Version migration is an advanced feature and should be configured according to your organization's policies and the maximum number of versions supported by both the source and target systems.
