Migration Hub Journeys provides templates that you can use to create your migration journey. These templates represent common migration scenarios and follow best practices. When you create a journey from a template, you get a journey with predefined phases, modules, tasks, and subtasks.
If you have a migration scenario that doesn't match any of the available templates, you can create a custom journey. In this case, you get an empty journey to which you add the phases, modules, tasks, and subtasks that you need for your migration.
Whether you use a template or create a custom journey, you can edit the structure and details of the journey at any time.
