• another kDrive to which your user account has access (except "external" type access)
• Dropbox
• Google Drive
• OneDrive
• OwnCloud
• NextCloud
• any device with a Webdav service including kDrive (read this guide - click here )

Data not imported

• Data shared to you is not imported
  • only data that actually belongs to you will be imported
• Google documents such as Gdocs, Sheets, Slide, etc. are not imported
  • except during a Google Drive import in which case these documents are converted into a standard format such as Microsoft .doc
