Migrating Files during an Org to Org Migration

[IDWPartners]

I'm working on a reimplementation from one Salesforce Environment to another and this org has a lot of documents. Is there any documenation on how to migrate files using demand tools?

@IDWPartners if you're doing an org migration, I'd highly recommend checking out Metazoa Snapshot.  While you could migrate data with DemandTools, Metazoa allows you to move related records all the same time maintaining the relationships.  With documents, there are multiple objects involved that makeup what you see when you view a document in Salesforce.

@Murphybp79 I'm with an implementation partner, I understand how the file data model works. DemandTools is the tool I have available for this migration and would like to be pointed towards any DemandTools documentation on Files migration guidelines.

@IDWPartners - For documents, you'll need a file path so you would need to first perform an export from the original SF to the new one.
