Google Workspace migration

Bridge Microsoft Office and Google Workspace

Translate Word, Excel, and PowerPoint content to and from Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides with explicit Drive, authentication, sync, and fidelity boundaries.

Read the Google Workspace guide Choose packages

Moving between Microsoft Office files and Google Workspace is both a document-conversion problem and a cloud-coordination problem. Content must be translated, but an application must also handle Drive files, revisions, authentication, shared drives, change tokens, conflicts, and retries.

OfficeIMO separates those concerns into focused packages.

Choose only the layers the workflow needs

  • OfficeIMO.GoogleWorkspace owns shared sessions, transport, scopes, diagnostics, and fidelity contracts.
  • OfficeIMO.GoogleWorkspace.Drive provides typed Drive files, media, shared drives, collaboration, and change feeds.
  • OfficeIMO.GoogleWorkspace.Auth.GoogleApis adds optional Google client credential and token-store adapters.
  • OfficeIMO.GoogleWorkspace.Sync handles checkpoints, dry-run, approval, and apply outcomes.
  • Word, Excel, and PowerPoint adapters translate Docs, Sheets, and Slides content.

Make revisions part of the contract

A safe migration does not overwrite a destination merely because the source changed. Record the source revision or change token, compare the expected destination state, and decide whether to replace, merge, skip, or raise a conflict. Use dry-run output for bulk operations before applying changes.

Inspect fidelity by feature

Google and Microsoft document models overlap, but they are not identical. Tables, charts, drawings, speaker notes, formulas, comments, and collaboration metadata may require native mapping, approximation, visual fallback, preservation, or rejection.

Treat the fidelity report as part of the migration result. High-value content may need a sample review in both platforms before a bulk move.

Keep credentials outside document code

Authentication and token storage belong at the application boundary. Use the optional auth adapter when it fits, or provide your own credentials and storage through the shared abstractions. Never embed tokens in documents, logs, or migration manifests.
