# End-User Migration Checklist

You are in the [Tableau Cloud Manual Migration Guide.](https://help.tableau.com/current/guides/migration/en-gb/emg_intro.htm) This guide describes how to manually migrate Tableau Server deployments with fewer than 100 users to Tableau Cloud.

Welcome to Tableau Cloud!

You're here because your Tableau administrator has recently migrated your Tableau Server environment to [Tableau Cloud](https://online.tableau.com/), Tableau's fully managed analytics platform.

As a part of your migration, the following tasks need a few minutes of your time to make sure that you have a smooth transition to Tableau Cloud. If you were using any of the below features on Tableau Server, they will need to be re-created on Tableau Cloud. Review this list to understand what features need to be re-created and follow the steps provided to do so!

Work with your Tableau administrator to access both Tableau Server and Tableau Cloud while you migrate these items.

- **URL actions**: You’ll need to update URL actions that originated on Tableau Server so that they point to Tableau Cloud URLs, or you can use updated field variables. See [URL Actions](https://help.tableau.com/current/pro/desktop/en-gb/actions_url.htm).
- **Subscriptions**: You’ll need to resubscribe to views, workbooks and flows on the Tableau Cloud site. See [Create a Subscription to a View or Workbook](https://help.tableau.com/current/online/en-gb/subscribe_user.htm).
- **Custom views**: A custom view is a copy of a view that has your selections and filters applied. You’ll need to reapply custom views on your Tableau Cloud site. See [Use Custom Views](https://help.tableau.com/current/pro/desktop/en-gb/customview.htm).
- **Row-level security**: User and group names can change in a migration. If you used groups and user names in row-level security solutions within Tableau data policies, data sources or workbooks, they will need to be updated following a migration.
- **Ask Data lenses**: You’ll need to reconfigure Ask Data Lenses on Tableau Cloud. See [Create Lenses that Focus Ask Data for Specific Audiences](https://help.tableau.com/current/pro/desktop/en-gb/ask_data_lenses.htm).
- **Favorites**: You must recreate your favorites. You can add any type of content to your favourites, except for embedded data sources. See [Mark Favourites](https://help.tableau.com/current/pro/desktop/en-gb/favorites.htm).
- **Collections**: Collections will need to be recreated by users in Tableau Cloud.
- **User account settings**: Update your email settings and user interface options. See [Manage Your Account Settings](https://help.tableau.com/current/pro/desktop/en-gb/useracct.htm).
- **Saved credentials for data sources**: You must update all data sources and flows that previously included your saved credentials. See [Manage Saved Credentials for Data Connections](https://help.tableau.com/current/pro/desktop/en-gb/manage_stored_credentials.htm).
- **Webhooks**: You must recreate Webhooks on Tableau Cloud. See [Tableau Webhooks](https://help.tableau.com/current/developer/webhooks/en-gb/index.html).
- **Embedding solutions**: If Tableau Server views are embedded in any other applications, those solutions will need to be updated to use Tableau Cloud configurations. This includes, but isn’t limited to, the URL of the content item, how the web page interacts with the items, and authentication to the visualisation.
- **Dashboard extensions**: Depending on the use case, dashboard extensions may need to be adapted to the new Tableau Cloud environment. See [Dashboard Extensions](https://help.tableau.com/current/pro/desktop/en-gb/dashboard_extensions.htm). Your Tableau administrator may need to [set up dashboard extension support on your Cloud site](https://help.tableau.com/current/online/en-gb/dashboard_extensions_server.htm).
- **Data Management**: If your organisation has Data Management capabilities (either through previously purchased Data Management, or by purchasing Tableau Enterprise), then you must update data quality warnings and field descriptions. See [Virtual Connections and Data Policies](https://help.tableau.com/current/online/en-gb/dm_vconn_overview.htm).
