Quest Tool. LN to SP Migration

Hi,

I am migrating data to list and attachments to Document library in same quest job. Is there any way to change the attachment name when migrating it to doc library. and the same name should come in the HTML part in list.

This is need since there are attachments with  same name and when we migrate it to Doc Lib, it will overwrite. 

Please reply ASAP.

Thanks & Regards,

Sandeep Sharma

  • Hi,

    You can create a new field of type "FileName" in the Target data definition. In your scenario you need to set the property "Applies to" to "AlternateOnly", since you are writing out the files to an alternate target.
    You can then map a value of your choice to that field.

    This is need since there are attachments with  same name and when we migrate it to Doc Lib, it will overwrite. 

    We will actually check if these are the same files. If yes, it will be saved only once.
    If not, the file name will be appended by a hex value to create a unique file name.

    Hope this helps, Peter
