Root Cause

Account Authentication Issues

This error stems from authentication issues with the Google account, indicating problems preventing calendar access during migration. The account may not exist, be suspended, or have expired credentials.

Possible Conditions

  • Non-existent account: The user account doesn't exist in your Google Workspace domain
  • Suspended account: The account has been deactivated by an administrator
  • Expired credentials: The user's password needs to be renewed

Solution

Verify and Fix Account Status

1

Check Account Existence

Verify the user actually exists in your Google Workspace Admin Console. Check for typos in the email address.

2

Confirm Account Status

Check if the account is active or suspended. Reactivate if necessary in the Google Admin Console.

3

Verify Password Status

If using password-based authentication, ensure the password hasn't expired or been changed.

4

Restart Migration

After resolving the account issue, restart the calendar migration for the affected user.

Email and Contacts Still Migrate

Despite this calendar error, the migration platform can still successfully migrate emails and contacts from the affected account. Only calendar data is blocked by this error.

Troubleshooting Checklist

  • User exists in Google Admin Console
  • Account status is "Active" (not suspended)
  • Google Calendar service is enabled for the user
  • Password is current and not expired
  • Email address is spelled correctly in migration list
