Change the field type during migration from metadata field from source to choices field in target

Is there a way using Metalogix tool to change the field type during migration from metadata to choice and include the metadata values into choices?

  • Hello,

    Content Matrix cannot convert field types from one type to another during a migration, with the exception of converting source fields to managed metadata.  You could, however, create a new choice column on the target list and then map your source column to the target column.  This will only work when your source column is a TEXT type.  If the source field is managed metadata the field value will be a "Label|GUID" pair.
