Migrate email from one G Suite account to another

Modified on Wed, 7 Jun, 2017 at 3:25 PM

If you're migrating to G Suite from another G Suite account, you can migrate email using the data migration service.

If you aren't migrating from G Suite, see other options to migrate email using the data migration service. 

You must be signed in as a super administrator for this task.



In your Google Admin console (at admin.google.com)...

Go to Data migration.

Select the Email option and click Continue.

On the Email Migration screen:

From the Migration source list, select G Suite.

From the Connection protocol list, select Auto select (Recommended).

Enter the role account information for your old G Suite account. This is the G Suite administrator's email address and password.

Click Connect. The data migration service attempts to detect your old G Suite account.

(Optional) If the detection fails:

Verify the connection protocol and role account information is correct.

Verify that you've set up G Suite correctly.

Click Connect again.

In the Migration start date and Migration options sections, accept the default options or choose to exclude data that doesn't need to be migrated.  

Click Select Users.

Next: Go to Migrate email for a single user or Migrate email for multiple users.
