About Tableau Content Migration Tool

This set of articles guides you through setting up, using, and maintaining the Tableau Content Migration Tool.

Note: The Tableau Content Migration Tool is not recommended for migrations when moving from Tableau Server to Tableau Cloud. To migrate from Tableau Server to Tableau Cloud, use the Tableau Migration SDK. For Tableau Content Migration Tool recommended use cases, see Tableau Content Migration Tool Use Cases

What is Content Migration Tool?

The Content Migration Tool provides an easy way to copy or migrate content between Tableau Server sites. You can do this between sites on a single Tableau Server installation, or if you have user-based licensing, between sites on separate installations (for example, between a development instance of Tableau Server and a production installation). The Content Migration Tool user interface walks you through the steps necessary to build a "migration plan" that you can use once or as a template for multiple migrations.

Before migrating content, we recommend reviewing the Content Governance(Link opens in a new window) section in Tableau Blueprint.
