Supported content types

VaultMe for Admins supports the migration of:

  • Emails
  • Files
  • Contacts
  • Calendars

All these file types can be included in one migration. You can also exclude certain types during the migration setup if not needed.

It is not possible to include only selected folders, labels, emails, dates, or categories in the migration. For each part of the account included in the migration, VaultMe for Admins will copy all items.

VaultMe for Admins does not migrate Google Photos content. The only reliable way to copy Google Photos as the moment is to work through a manual process. For more information about copying Google Photos manually, see VaultMe's article: How to Transfer Google Photos from One Account to Another.

Below is a detailed description of what can and cannot be copied using VaultMe for Admins.

Emails

Except for "Trash" and "Spam," VaultMe for Admins will copy every email message along with its:

  • Attachments
  • Original formatting
  • Read/unread status
  • Labels (i.e., the email folders in which each email is organized, such as "Inbox" or "Sent" or "Drafts" or other custom labels created in Gmail)

VaultMe for Admins will not copy:

  • Email categories (such as "Forums" or "Social")
  • Google groups
  • Any emails from "Trash" and "Spam"

  • Google Keep items
  • Google Forms files
  • The sharing permissions of Drive files or folders

  • Star labels on folders and files (if starred)
  • Settings for Priority and Workspaces in Google Drive
  • Shortcuts to any of the above
  • Files having file names and extensions that can't be uploaded due to Microsoft's security policies because they are executable or used by SharePoint Server.

Contacts

VaultMe for Admins will copy every contact record that it explicitly saved to Google Contacts. Contact records from "Other contacts" will not be copied unless they are saved to the primary contacts tab.

For each contact record, the following details (if added) will be copied:

  • Full name, including suffix and title
  • Nickname
  • Phonetic first and last name
  • Contact label
  • Email addresses
  • Phone numbers
  • Profile image
  • Birthday details
  • Relationship label (such as "Friend" or "Manager")
  • Postal addresses
  • Website links
  • Work details (such as company name and job title)
  • Associated events and their dates (such as "Anniversary")

  • Custom field details
  • Notes

VaultMe for Admins will not copy the following details of contacts:

  • "File as"

  • Interaction history
  • Internet call details

Additionally, VaultMe for Admins will not copy:

  • "Directory"
  • "Other contacts" (including hidden contacts)
  • "Trash"
  • "Frequently contacted" view

Please note: Outlook People has fewer fields in its contact form than Google Contacts. Because of this, some details in Google Contacts records may be excessive for Outlook People (such as over three email addresses or over fourteen telephone numbers per one contact record). Excessive details from Google Contacts are copied, but after the migration, they are added to the copies of contacts in the destination account as notes.

Calendars

VaultMe for Admins will copy:

  • The default "General" calendar
  • All events created by the owner of the account in these calendars

  • Recurrence settings (for recurring events)
  • Color labels of events
  • Event descriptions with original formatting (if added)
  • Event locations (if added)
  • Guests' details (if added, guests' details will be saved as event description)
  • Rooms (if added, room details will be saved as event description)

VaultMe for Admins will not copy:

  • Public calendars (such as "Sports" or "Public holidays")
  • Calendars shared with the user
  • Event notifications settings (if added)
  • Color labels of calendars
  • Availability settings (availability will be set to "Busy" for all copied events)
