titleDefault Workflow

The workflow "The default Jira workflow" can not be exported because this is a read only workflow.


You can add to your exported workflow a list of pre-import and post-import sil files that will be executed on the Import Jira instance, before or after executing the main import. You definitely know about sil script files if you are using our Power Scripts for Jira app. SIL, or Simple Issue Language is very easy to learn yet powerful and extensible: it's a Java-like language with no dependence on Jira version, offering power through simplicity and flexibility.
