About this tag
The spmt tag covers Microsoft’s transition from the SharePoint Migration Assessment Tool (SMAT) to SharePoint Migration Tool (SPMT) 4.0 or later. Its current focus is the October 1, 2026, end-of-support date for SMAT and the practical migration planning decisions that follow. Administrators with existing SMAT-based runbooks may capture a final baseline using its farm discovery features, while organizations without meaningful SMAT history can move directly to SPMT. The source also highlights SPMT’s scan capability as Microsoft’s supported path for assessing SharePoint Server sites before migration. This tag is most relevant to SharePoint administrators standardizing pre-migration assessment workflows.
