Hi,

I would like to understand the process for migrating more than 5,000 static pages and several user interaction forms from a SharePoint public-facing site to Power Pages, while preserving existing styles and color themes.

Specifically, I need clarity on the following:

Prerequisites: What setup or requirements should be in place before starting the migration?

Data Migration: What is the recommended approach to migrate the data?

Content Strategy: Should the static pages themselves be moved, or should the content be migrated into Dataverse tables with new forms created in Power Pages?

Potential Issues: What challenges or common problems might arise during this migration?

Tools: Are there any third-party tools available to assist with this process?

Any guidance or best practices would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
