# Creating a migration journey from a template<a name="template-migration-tutorial"></a>

In this tutorial you create a migration journey that uses the general migration template\. After you create the journey, you add and remove tasks to customize the journey\. You also send invitations to teams and individuals so that they can join the journey as members and work on it\. Finally, you set start and finish dates\.

**Create the migration journey**

1. Open the AWS MigOps console at [https://prod.us-east-2.console.migops.migration-services.aws.dev/](https://prod.us-east-2.console.migops.migration-services.aws.dev/)\.

1. Choose **Go to MigOps Dashboard**\.

1. In the navigation pane, choose **Migration journeys**\.

1. Choose **Create journey**\.

1. In the **Journey creation method** tile, keep the default, which is **Use an AWS MigOps template**\.

1. In the **Journey details** tile, under **Journey name** enter **general\-migration\-tutorial\-journey**\.

1. In the **Space name** field, enter **tutorial\-space**\.

To finish setting up the journey, you invite team members to participate in the journey, then you edit its contents to match your specific migration scenario\. 

**Invite members**

In this procedure, you invite two people to join the migration space that you created while creating the journey\.

**Customize the journey**

The general\-migration template includes tasks for performing a Migration Readiness Assessment \(MRA\)\. In this tutorial we imagine a scenario where you've already performed an MRA\. Therefore, the MRA tasks aren't needed\. In the following procedure, you delete the MRA tasks, and you attach your MRA report to the journey\.

1. Choose the **Tasks** tab that is shown in the following image\.

1. In the dialog box, type **delete**, then choose **Delete**\.
