Description:
Schema transfer and Migration are not supported for SSH connections:

NotSupportedError: MySQL connections through SSH are not supported in this version of the MySQL Workbench Migration Wizard.

ERROR: Error during Connect to source DBMS: MySQL connections through SSH are not supported in this version of the MySQL Workbench Migration Wizard.

ERROR: Exception in task 'Connect to source DBMS': NotSupportedError('MySQL connections through SSH are not supported in this version of the MySQL Workbench Migration Wizard.',)

How to repeat:
Begin new migration
Select an existing SSH connection for either source or destination
Continue through migration wizard

Suggested fix:
Allow Schema Transfers and Migrations to use SSH connections

Raised similar type of bug.

Bug #81909 	Unable to establish connection in Data Migration - "Standard TCP/IP over SSH"

Do we have any fix for this?/

Does any version of the migration tool support ssh connections?

Fixed as of the upcoming MySQL Workbench 8.0.12 release, and here's the changelog entry:

Schema transfer and migration operations did not support SSH connections
and produced error messages when the operations were attempted.

Thank you for the bug report.
