Hi Experts 

I need to migrate data from On premise environment to Cloud environment.

For every record there is a folder creation whose id is stored in DB table , Also these folder , later, filled with documents that uploaded by end users.

1) Is there a way that I can migrate the same folders with same IDs in DB, If not then what is the best way to do so?

2) Is there a way that I can migrate the same documents with same IDs in DB , If not then what is the best way to do so ?

I'm new to appian , so please provide a step by step solution in easy language.

Thank you in advance

If you conduct a full migration supported by Appian, all your data is consistently pushed over.

Actually we are not migrating objects, we are migrating only data which includes DB data, documents and Folders, So is there any way to do so?

Not that I am aware of. You could use a process to send the files to an API on the target system and include the original ID of the document. Then, on the target system, update the DB changing the references to the new ID.
