How to Migrate Skype for business on premise users to skype for business online

 As we know that Microsoft have deprecated skype for business online, so we have to connect Microsoft Teams for migration of skype for business on premise users. 

We have to user Skype for business Power shell on the FE server having internet access.

First save the credentials in a variable $cred.

$cred=Get-Credential

then connect to teams:

Type Connect-MicrosoftTeams and enter the credentials

Place the skype HostedMigrationOverrideUrl in a variable $url

$url=https://admin1e.online.lync.com/HostedMigration/hostedmigrationService.svc

Then use the following command

Move-CsUser -Identity nawaz@domain.com -Target sipfed.online.lync.com -Credential $cred -HostedMigrationOverrideUrl $url

then you should get the prompt for confirmation, after entering "Y" the command should be successful and the user should be migrated.

Note: in the skype HostedMigrationOverrideUrl the two yellow highlighted characters (1e) will be different for each organization.

$url=https://admin1e.online.lync.com/HostedMigration/hostedmigrationService.svc
