Move from Google Drive to SharePoint with Timestamps

Is your business all set to perform Google Drive to SharePoint migration? To ensure a full transfer, you have to migrate important metadata such as timestamps to retain data integrity and collaboration/productivity continuity.

If you miss out on timestamp transfer, file versions can get altered which will affect your business continuity. Therefore, it is important to ensure that timestamps are not lost or changed when you perform a migration from Google Workspace to SharePoint.

Importance of Timestamp Migration from Google Drive to SharePoint

Timestamps provide important details such as creation and modification dates. They are essential to:

  • Preserving Date History: To understand file usage, track file versions for backtracking and forensic investigations.
  • Maintaining Overall Check: To track the exact history of document edits and updates.
  • Enhances File Sorting and Search: Organize files chronologically and enhance search functions to find files more easily.

Challenges of Timestamp Migration from Google Drive to SharePoint

API Limitations Google Drive’s API may not expose all timestamp data. Also, SharePoint’s API can restrict metadata updates.
Timezone Format Inconsistency Differences in timezone formats can cause incorrect transfer.
Bulk Migration Issues High-volume transfers can lead to sync errors or timeouts. This can corrupt your timestamp data.
