  1. (OPTIONAL) At this point the profile is ready to perform a migration, so as a backup: Clone the profile to save the configurations, this new cloned profile should NOT be used for migration.

  2. Start initial sync that should include ALL epics, be sure to add a old date that doesn’t exclude any older issues. To be sure, go to the Jira project and run the JQL applied in the filter, check the number of issues. They should ALL be migrated at this point.

  3. After Epics are all migrated, go edit the same profile and repeat the steps 1-5 for a different issue type by using the hierarchy order.

Info

Recommendations:

  1. Test this in sandbox first

  2. Clone the profiles between issue type changed to save the configurations and have a record for traceability, the cloned profiles should NOT be used for migration.

  3. Migration/Initial synchronization SHOULD be done with the same profile to keep the link between issues.

  4. Profile should be disabled in all steps.
