Hi, I want to learn how I can migrate my files from my personal Google Drive account to my Box account. I read this article: https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/7900885766163-Migrating-content-from-Google-Drive-to-Box and on the Introduction it said, "Note: This guide applies to migrations from Google Drive associated with a Google Workplace account, not personal Google Drive accounts or Google Cloud Storage. If you are looking to migrate from personal Google Drive accounts, contact your Box account team for guidance." When I tried to on Help from the home page, I get routed to the https://support.box.com/hc/en-us landing page, and from there when I click the menu option for Support > Contact Support, the only option I have is to post on the Community forum.

Can someone please advise how I can migrate my files from my personal Google Drive account to my Box account?

Hi Joel, 

Welcome to Box Community and glad to assist! 

As for Personal Google Drive subscribers, please download your files to your machine so you could upload it in your Box account. 

Thanks for posting!

So are you saying I need to manually download my Google Drive files to my computer and then upload them to Box?
