This article will walk your through migration procedures if you're moving from Cloud to On-premises, or from on-premises to Cloud.

Migrate Cloud to On-premises

When migrating from the Cloud to an on-premises instance:

  1. [Install and Deploy]({% link _articles/hosting/install-on-premise.md %}) Bitwarden to your on-premises server.
  2. Download your Enterprise Organization License from the Cloud Web Vault and use it to [Create an Organization]({% link _articles/organizations/create-an-organization.md %}) in your on-premises instance.
  3. [Export your Data]({% link _articles/account/export-your-data.md %}) from the Cloud Web Vault.
  4. Import your Data to your on-premisesinstance to automatically create Collections, Vault items, and their associations.
  5. [Create User Groups]({% link _articles/organizations/create-groups.md %}) manually in your on-premises instance.
  6. Start [Inviting Users to your Organization]({% link _articles/organizations/managing-users.md %}).

Migrate on-premises to Cloud

When migrating from an on-premises instance to the Cloud:

  1. [Create an Organization]({% link _articles/organizations/create-an-organization.md %}) in the Cloud Web Vault{:target="_blank"}.
  2. [Create User Groups]({% link _articles/organizations/create-groups.md %}) and [Invite Users to your Organization]({% link _articles/organizations/managing-users.md %}) to mirror your on-premises instance.
  3. [Export your Data]({% link _articles/account/export-your-data.md %}) from your on-premises instance. Encourage your users to export their personal Vaults as well.
  4. Import your Data to the Cloud.
  5. Manually migrate (download from on-premises and upload to Cloud) any stored attachments.
