Migration tool to convert Orchestrator Integration
toolkit based Integration packs to PowerShell
modules
Shipped converted PowerShell modules for the
Microsoft released and supported Integration
packs
• Provides Integration Module that contains
equivalent cmdlets for Orchestrator’s collection
of Standard Activities.
Download Migration Toolkit
Download Converted Modules
Runbook Migration Steps
1. Import the converted integration modules
 For Microsoft supported Integration packs - Download the converted
Integration modules
 For custom Integration packs – Use the IP converter tool to convert into an
integration module
2. Import the Standard Activities modules
3. Export the Runbook from SCO and import into SMA/Azure Automation

4.
Import process will perform the necessary mapping/conversion from SCO runbooks to
PowerShell workflow
Do the manual fix up (as needed)
