Run the Migration Tool Readiness Check After you kick off migration process, the Lightning Sync migration tool prompts you to run the readiness check. The readiness check ensures that any problematic configurations are addressed before you move your settings to Einstein Activity Capture. You can pause your migration to address potential issues before you proceed with the move.
Move Your Settings from Lightning Sync to Einstein Activity Capture After you get a clean report from the migration readiness check, move your Lightning Sync settings to Einstein Activity Capture. Accept the terms of service agreement and start your move. If you need more time to prepare, you can pause your migration and return to this step later. If you connect to Salesforce using Google, before you start your move, work with your Google admin to give the service account access to your Google users’ data.
Access Migrated Configurations and Add Einstein Activity Capture Features Now that your settings are moved, get familiar with the productivity-boosting features available to your users through Einstein Activity Capture and decide what you want to set up. Or you can adjust your previous sync settings.
Turn Off Lightning Sync After you migrate your Lightning Sync settings and assign users to Einstein Activity Capture, turn off Lightning Sync. Then, if you use Microsoft® Office 365 with Exchange Web Service, upgrade to Microsoft Graph as your connection method with Einstein Activity Capture.
