Workflow migration scope

The following scopes of migration are available when it comes to migrations and Nintex for Office 365 workflows.

• Single scope
• Multi-workflow scope

These scopes can help you select the appropriate paths and methods and speak knowledgeably when discussing a Nintex migration. Typically, you’ll be moving a group of workflows from one list or site to another, or moving a group of workflows from one tenancy to another.

Single scope

Used when moving a single workflow from one list to another list.

The single workflow scope is applicable when you have a workflow design that you want to move around within a site or environment of the same platform type. The type of migration you may see when in this scope is a design migration.

Multi-workflow scope

Used when moving a group of workflows from one list to another list.

The multi-workflow scope is applicable when you’re attempting to move a segment of content from one place to another in SharePoint and want to move select workflows with that content. This scope is most often seen with a context migration, upgrade migration, and conversion migration types.
