Transfer Google Drive Data to OneDrive

Downloading Data from Google Drive

  1. Log into Google Drive (drive.google.com) with your SJF network credentials.
    Select the file or folder you would like to download. To download multiple files, press Command (Mac) or CTRL (Windows), select the other files and right-click > Download. This will create a .zip file of the items you downloaded.
    1. Depending on the size of the items you are downloading, this process might take a while! DO NOT CLOSE THIS TAB WHILE YOU ARE DOWNLOADING

  1. When the download is complete, go to the location of the downloaded .zip file and Extract the files.

Uploading Data to OneDrive

  1. The best way to upload files to OneDrive is through the OneDrive app, which can be downloaded via Company Portal on Windows, or Self Service on Mac if OneDrive is not already installed.
  2. Open your OneDrive app and select the files/folders you just extracted from the .zip file and drag the files into OneDrive.
