Internal and External Emails in Migration Job Options

During the Migration Job Options stage, CloudFuze allows admins to selectively suppress email notifications for internal and external users:

Internal Emails:

Internal emails refer to users within the same organization. It refers to employees using corporate email addresses (e.g., alex@xyz.com, erik@xyz.com, ben@xyz.com). These email addresses belong to the internal users (Alex, Erik, Ben, etc.).

When the Internal Emails toggle is enabled, you can suppress all notification emails sent to internal users during the migration.

External Emails:

External emails refer to users outside the organization, including third-party collaborators using personal or email domains such as Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, or other external providers.

Enabling the External Emails toggle suppresses email notifications sent to these external recipients when users transfer permissions or shared access.

Image 2: The screenshot below demonstrates how email notifications are generated from the source platform when you transfer permissions during migration.

Users receive an “invited” email notification from Dropbox when someone shares a file or folder with their email address during the migration.
