Tracking and Viewing Migration Progress

After completing the Assessment template migration form and initiating migration, customers can monitor progress and check for errors.
Migration records are accessible via All > Smart Assessment Engine > Administration > Template Migrations.
Each migration record has a unique identifier starting with ATMIG, which helps locate specific migration data.
The migration form displays the values used to generate the new assessment template, while related lists show the status and content of the migrated data.

Interpreting Migration Results

Migration results are organized into three related lists, each providing detailed status and mapping information:

Section Migrations: Shows the mapping from the original metric category to the new assessment section, including a unique number (ATSMIG prefix), migration status (Completed or Errored), and error details if applicable.
Question Migrations: Details the migration of individual questions, with a unique identifier (ATQMIG prefix), source and target mappings, and statuses such as Completed, Not supported, or Errored, along with error descriptions.
Response Option Migrations: Lists migration details for response options within questions, including unique numbers (ATROMIG prefix), source metric definitions, target response options, migration status, and error details if any errors occurred.

Users can expand sections or questions to view associated questions or response options respectively, providing deep insight into the migrated template structure.

Practical Benefits for ServiceNow Customers

Enables clear tracking and validation of migrated assessment templates from legacy metric types.
Provides detailed error reporting and status updates to quickly identify and resolve migration issues.

Tracking assessment template migration

After you have filled out the Assessment template migration form and started the migration process, you can view the progress and confirm if it completed successfully or if there were any errors.
