Need to migrate around 2 lakh incident records from one instance to another including everything like - attachments, worknotes, audit history, incident task, basically all the data related to it.
What possible options are there?
Note - Instance data replication is not an option as customer is doesnt want to purchase it.

Hi @Suggy
Do via XML, but 2L in one go is not a good option, break it in pieces and teh move.

Hello @Suggy
Migrating such a large volume of data in ServiceNow without using instance data replication can be challenging.
You can create export sets to export data from the source instance and then import it into the target instance. This method can handle large volumes of data but may require scripting to manage attachments and related records.
Also, in case if you have not seen this check this thread
If my response has helped you hit helpful button and if your concern is solved do mark my response as correct.
Thanks & Regards
Viraj Hudlikar.
