Now generally available: Migrate users’ emails from Google Workspace, Gmail and other IMAP enabled mail servers

What’s changing

In March 2024, we launched an open beta for the ability to migrate your users’ email data from Google Workspace, Gmail, or IMAP enabled mail servers to another Google Workspace account. This includes the ability to run delta migrations, to smartly bring over newly generated or modified emails from the source without duplicating previously migrated content.

Beginning today, this data migration experience is now generally available, helping admins migrate email data in a more secure, reliable, and efficient manner.
