The migration tools you need aren't available in earlier versions.

You can verify the current version of your source and target environments in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console. If you're not sure, check with your administrator.

Not covered in this Guide

You must migrate non-Oracle Analytics Cloud artifacts separately or re-create them on the target instance.
