    Hello,

    Will check and get back. Can you confirm if you are using the latest version of the migration tool?

    Thanks,

    Hello,

    Apologies for the delayed response. I didn't get a notification for this. If you are okay, can you share your email ID for better follow-ups and if needed, sharing the problematic appstack?

    Thanks,
    -Mani.
