Manage Migrations

Migrations were introduced in MicroStrategy 2021 Update 4 as a preview feature (only available for on-premises set up) and are available out of the box starting in MicroStrategy 2021 Update 7. You must configure the MicroStrategy Storage service to use this feature.

Preview features are early versions of features and are not to be used in a production environment as the core behavior remain subject to change between preview and GA. By selecting to expose preview features in MicroStrategy Workstation, you can access these features and use them as you would any other dashboard functionality. The official versions of preview features are included in subsequent releases.

Migrations are new workflows for the legacy tools, Object Manager and Project Merge wizard.

The project package type covers the workflow for merging projects.

Administration objects were formerly known as configuration objects in MicroStrategy's legacy products.

Migration packages enable content movement between environments and projects. There are three types of packages:

Object: Copy select objects with or without their dependencies between projects.
Project: Synchronize a large number of objects between projects.
Administration: Copy select administration objects with or without their dependencies between environments.

Use the Migrations section, on the Workstation window, to enable package monitoring and management.
