The migration stops - TF237201: Cannot add a new link because one of the work items being linked will exceed the 1000 link limit.

While trying to migrate test case,shared steps & shared parameters, the migration completely stops if it hits a work item which has 1000 or more links. We have approximately 4000 + such WITs, how can we skip such WITs and carryon with the ones that can be migrated.
This is the configuration file we are using.

Yu would need to ensure that all work items in scope have less than 1000 links..

You could try AND [System.RelatedLinkCount] < 1000
