Past period, we have various migrations. Here we have also used third-party programs, such as Share Gate. But when migrating InfoPath forms not fully published. This means that the data is present but the templates they are based on are not correctly migrated. Here it is necessary so to adjust manually.
The situation
Microsoft InfoPath forms are created by using InfoPath 2007. The forms are published as Managed forms via Sharepoint Central Admin. To publish the forms again, we need first to download the forms. If we look at in Sharepoint Central Admin Manage Form Templates we have no possibility to download it. But as befits the Sharepoint is there somewhere a list or library where the forms are stored.
