Preserving Modified by date in SharePoint

Akhan365

Hello

I wanted to know If it is possible to copy data from Notes column “modifiedName” to SharePoint OOTB modified by(Editor) column. For some reason, when I am not getting the required results. Once, job is completed is see system account added as "Modified by".

I am simply copying data from Notes document to a SharePoint pages library.

Are there any examples that I can look at?

Thanks

    Yes, this is possible.
    However, to successfully map any user field (including "Modified by"), a valid user mapping needs to be in place and configured in MNSP. If a valid mapping is not found, a default account will be used - according to the settings in the "Advanced" tab in the migration job.

    Also note that ticking "Preserve Created/Modified Identities" on the "Map Data" tab will create a standard mapping for created and modified fields. If you want to use other fields, you can map these in the mapping list, but you need to uncheck this option.

    Hope this helps
