Microsoft Stream (Classic) Deprecation FAQs

What changes are happening to Microsoft Stream and when will this occur?

For the past year, Microsoft has been asking people to migrate their videos from their old Microsoft Stream (Classic) service to their new service, called Stream (on Sharepoint). 
Microsoft Stream Classic will be completely disabled on April 15, 2024.

Where should I store my downloaded videos?

Once you have downloaded the videos you wish to keep, you can upload them to a OneDrive folder or SharePoint site.  Microsoft has incorporated the video player tools directly into OneDrive and SharePoint, so many video formats can be played right from a Shared OneDrive folder or SharePoint Document library.

How can I get assistance with migrating my videos to OneDrive?

For those with many videos they wish to keep, we have a migration tool to move them to your OneDrive.  Please submit an ITS Help Request if you would like assistance with your migration.  .
