Chatter Private messages data migration

Hi,

we have a requirement for Chatter data migration from one production org to other. as part of it i am looking into all objects which we need to migrate.


i am unable to find out how to migrate "Chatter Private Messages" which includes conversations, conversation members and finally messages. 
is it possible to do this if not what will be the other alternative for it. please let me know if anyone worked on such requirement.

we are using informatica powercenter for migration

Thanks,
Rakesh

Hi Rakesh,

Though the chatter private message data can be retrieved from ChatterMessage (https://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/api/Content/sforce_api_objects_chattermessage.htm) and ChatterConversation (https://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/api/Content/sforce_api_objects_chatterconversation.htm) objects, we will unfortunately not be able to insert into these objects as they do not support Insert or Update calls. You can only retrieve this data, but cannot insert into them, hence I don't think migration is not possible.

Thanks,
Shashank
