Authentication migration tool

On this page

These instructions explain how to migrate the user accounts and user groups from one authentication provider to another. The tool can be found in three locations on the web interface of your Devolutions Server instance:

  • AdministrationServer SettingsAuthentication

  • AdministrationUsers

  • AdministrationUser Groups

To migrate users and user groups to the same Identity provider (for example: Active Directory to another Active Directory), the information under AdministrationServer SettingsAuthentication must be changed to the new domain before using the Authentication Migration Tool.
