The target of the whiteboard migration is a static image on a SharePoint page. There is no interactive whiteboard in SharePoint. See the Whiteboards overview for how the migration works.
What is migrated
- The current visual state of the whiteboard, exported as an image and placed on the migrated SharePoint page.
- The position in the page tree: the whiteboard becomes a SharePoint page like any other content.
- When the experimental draw.io mode is enabled, additionally a
.drawiofile as page attachment, converted from the whiteboard content on a best effort basis.
What is not migrated
- Interactivity. The image is static. There is no editing, no collaboration, no whiteboard experience in SharePoint.
- The optional draw.io attachment is an experimental, best effort conversion, not a copy: it is not editable inside SharePoint, elements without a draw.io equivalent are lost or wrong, and reworking it requires an external draw.io editor. Treat the image as the faithful representation.
For examples of what the results look like, see the blog posts Migrating Confluence Cloud Whiteboards and Migrating Whiteboards as draw.io.
