How to migrate a Classic Project from one instance of JIRA cloud to another ?

[Alish Maity]

I want to migrate a classic project from one instance of JIRA Cloud to another. I want to migrate all the project related configurations - Boards, Board Settings, Custom Fields( without the field values ), Workflows, Tasks, Sub-Tasks, Schemes and other configurations.

Please suggest me how shall I proceed.

Hello @Alish Maity ,

The Jira Cloud Migration Assistant is an app that helps you easily move projects, users, and groups from Jira Core or Jira Software on server to the cloud. Built and maintained by Atlassian, the app is free to install and use.

BTW, some configurations cannot be migrated, you can refer to the following post.

The above content describes the migration from Server to Cloud.

I just noticed that you need to migrate a project from Cloud to Cloud. Similarly, you can only choose to migrate Issues without configuration items such as other workflows and custom fields.

Limits to this approach

Before importing the CSV file, you'll need to recreate the project and set up the project's configurations on the target site, including Workflow, Permission Schemes, etc. This manual configuration may take some time.

Hey @Alish Maity,

As Ollie mentioned I think you need to go with an Add-On. 

We are using "Project Configurator" to export/ import Projects with the settings we like from one instance to another. For example from Productive instance to testing instance.

maybe this helps you, too.

Cheers,
