By default, migration jobs will start from the root of your share. However, if your use case involves copying data from a specific path within your source share, you can provide the path in the **Sub-path** field. Supplying this value will start the data migration from the location you've specified. If the sub path you've specified isn't found, no data will be copied.

Prior to creating an endpoint and a job resource, it's important to verify that the path you've provided is correct and that the data is accessible. You're unable to modify endpoints or job resources after they're created. If the specified path is wrong, you'll need to delete the resources and re-create them.

- File or folder renames between copies won't lead to duplicate content. A renamed item on the source side leads to the deletion of the item with the original name in the target and a new upload of the renamed item to the target. In case of folders this applies to all files and folders contained in it.

**Migration outcomes** are based upon the specific storage types of the source and target endpoints. For example, because blob storage only supports "virtual" folders, source files in folders will have their paths prepended to their names and placed in a flat list within a blob container. Empty folders will be represented as an empty blob in the target. Source folder metadata will be persisted in the custom metadata field of a blob, as they are with files.
