+User Migration
+==============
+
+The `User Migration app <https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/user_migration>`_ may
+be installed to allow migration of user data.
+
+App developers can integrate into User Migration and provide ways to export
+and import the app data of a user.
+
+Register a migrator
+-------------------
+
+A migrator is represented by a class implementing the
+``OCP\\UserMigration\\IMigrator`` interface. This class is instantiated
+whenever a user export or import begins.
