If you have two Grand Theft Auto Online profiles on the Xbox One, you should see both on the Migrate Profile page. Select the one that you want to transfer.

Once you select the profile to transfer to Xbox Series X, you should get an alert screen that shows that you're about to transfer your GTA Online profile.
