Form Migrator · InfoPath & legacy forms

Migrate InfoPath forms and data to modern Microsoft 365.

Discover your legacy forms, assess migration complexity and move the complete solution—not just the screen—to Power Apps, SharePoint, Lightning Forms or Forms Studio. Preserve data, attachments and history while processing stays inside your environment.

The form is only part of the migration

Retire InfoPath without rebuilding blind.

Form Libraries contain business rules, attachments, repeating data and years of completed submissions. Form Migrator helps you understand the estate first, then carries the experience and its historical record into a supported modern platform.

01

Discover the estate

Scan SharePoint 2013 and later farms or Microsoft 365, or import form files from the file system. Identify forms, Form Libraries and migration candidates at scale.

02

Assess compatibility

Analyse controls, layout, rules and data connections. The compatibility report highlights custom code, scripts, ActiveX, add-ins and other items that need attention.

03

Migrate the complete solution

Rebuild the modern form and transfer existing submissions, attachments, metadata, repeating content and relationships instead of leaving business history behind.

The InfoPath retirement deadline has passed.

Microsoft’s SharePoint Online InfoPath retirement milestone was July 2026. Form Migrator gives teams a practical route from unsupported legacy forms to Power Apps, SharePoint and Lightning Tools destinations—without turning every migration into a manual rebuild.

A controlled migration workflow

Discover, analyse, test and migrate.

Use a repeatable process for a single critical form or an estate-wide retirement programme.

Scan or import

Find forms in SharePoint On-Premises and Online, or import XSN and legacy files for assessment.

Analyse and plan

Review structure, controls, rules and data dependencies before choosing the destination.

Preview and test

Inspect the generated experience and validate the migration before anything is published.

Write and migrate

Create the target form, then move associated data, attachments and related records.

Choose the right destination

One estate. More than one modernisation route.

Not every legacy form belongs in the same target. Select the platform that fits its complexity, ownership and future lifecycle.

Power Platform

Power Apps

Generate Power Apps Canvas apps or SharePoint list-integrated apps from the existing form structure and layout, with SharePoint or Dataverse as the repository.

Modern SharePoint forms

Lightning Forms

Move to no-code SharePoint list forms with tabs, sections, rules, validation and repeating or related data that can be refined after migration.

Packaged solutions

Forms Studio

Build governed, reusable solutions with application lifecycle management, packaging and publishing across environments.

Historical record

Data migration and PDF archive

Preserve submissions in SharePoint or Dataverse and create accessible PDF archives for records that no longer need to remain editable.

Designed for enterprise data boundaries

A desktop migration accelerator—not a hosted data processor.

Form Migrator is a Windows desktop application that performs migration through Microsoft APIs. Form designs and business data remain within the customer-controlled environment rather than being uploaded to a shared Lightning Tools service.

  • Runs on a Windows 11 workstation
  • Uses Microsoft Graph and supported platform APIs
  • Works with SharePoint On-Premises and Microsoft 365 sources
  • Keeps migration processing under customer control
✓

Inside your environment

Assess, preview and migrate sensitive forms without sending completed-form data to an external migration platform.

Preserve what users rely on

Carry forward more than fields and labels.

Complex forms often encode the process itself. Form Migrator helps retain the behaviours and records that make the solution valuable.

Form experience

  • Existing design and layout
  • Validation and conditional logic
  • Multiple views and sections
  • People Pickers and complex controls

Structured and repeating data

  • Completed submissions
  • Repeating sections and tables
  • Attachments and metadata
  • Related records and XML data

Transparent exceptions

  • Compatibility reporting
  • Unsupported code highlighted
  • Rich-text bindings identified
  • Items needing manual remediation

Frequently asked questions

InfoPath migration questions, answered.

What can Form Migrator discover?

It can scan SharePoint 2013 and later environments and Microsoft 365 for InfoPath forms and Form Libraries, or assess imported files from the file system.

Does it migrate existing form data?

Yes. The migration can include completed submissions, metadata, attachments, repeating content and related information—not only the visual form design.

Which target platforms are supported?

Targets include Power Apps Canvas and SharePoint list-integrated apps, Lightning Forms, Forms Studio, SharePoint and Dataverse repositories, plus PDF archival scenarios.

Does customer data leave our environment?

No shared migration service is required. Form Migrator runs as a desktop application and processes designs and data within the customer-controlled environment.

Will every InfoPath form migrate automatically?

Most standard structures can be accelerated, but custom code, scripts, ActiveX controls, add-ins and certain rich-text bindings may require remediation. The compatibility report makes those exceptions visible.

Can we preview the result before publishing?

Yes. Teams can analyse, preview and test the generated form before publishing it to the destination platform.

Does it support Nintex and document-based forms?

Form Migrator supports modernisation work involving Nintex legacy forms and forms sourced from PDF, Word or Excel. The precise migration path depends on the source structure and chosen target.

Can Lightning Forms be edited after migration?

Yes. Forms migrated to Lightning Forms remain editable, so teams can refine layout, rules, validation and behaviour after the initial migration.

Start with discovery

Find the forms, understand the complexity and choose the right migration route.
