# About Tableau Content Migration Tool

This set of articles guides you through setting up, using, and maintaining the Tableau Content Migration Tool.

**Note**: The Tableau Content Migration Tool is not recommended for migrations when moving from Tableau Server to Tableau Cloud. To migrate from Tableau Server to Tableau Cloud, use the [Tableau Migration SDK](https://help.tableau.com/current/api/migration_sdk/en-us/index.html). For Tableau Content Migration Tool recommended use cases, see [Tableau Content Migration Tool Use Cases](https://help.tableau.com/v0.0/online/en-us/cmt-use-cases.htm#cmt-use-cases)

## What is Content Migration Tool?

The Content Migration Tool provides an easy way to copy or migrate content between projects. The Content Migration Tool user interface walks you through the steps necessary to build a "migration plan" that you can use once or as a template for multiple migrations.

**Note:** If you have a Tableau Server deployment, you can migrate content between projects on a Tableau Server installation and a Tableau Cloud site. Both deployments must have a valid Advanced Management license.

Before migrating content, we recommend reviewing the [Content Governance](https://help.tableau.com/current/blueprint/en-us/bp_governance_in_tableau.htm#content-governance-in-tableau) section in Tableau Blueprint.
