KIWI is the tool that enables users to export or import your workflows in just a few seconds. Designed to satisfy many customers requests, this app offers you the following features:

...

Exports/imports workflow related issue types

KIWI exports all the issue types from the contexts of related custom fields and that are found in the related issue type screen schemes.

Choose issue types to be imported in the import page. Only custom fields that have at least one of the selected issue types associated in their context or that have global context, and only the relevant issue type screen schemes associations for the selected issue types are imported.


Note

Issue Types are mapped by name. Every exported issue type that is selected for import is analyzed, and if it exists on the Jira import instance, found by name it is updated to match the issue type from the exported file otherwise the issue type is created.

Exports/imports workflow related custom fields

...

 Add to your exported workflow a list of pre-import and post-import sil files that are executed on the Import Jira instance from the Export Workflow page, before(the pre-import files) or after(the post-import files) executing the main import is executed.

Note

Important notices

  • To restore the contexts for custom fields, the projects (the search is done by project key) should exist on the Jira import instance before import or a mapping must be defined for a missing project in the Import Options section. Otherwise, the contexts are partially created/updated using the existing projects, if at least one project for the context is found.
  • KIWI does not export/import things related to a project, like Workflow Schemes, Field Configuration Schemes, Field Configurations and Issue Type Schemes. If needed, these must be manually created and associated to projects. The Issue type screen schemes are carried over by KIWI, but the association to the projects must be done manually after the import.
