Change how projects, configuration elements, and users get migrated

What makes the Cloud Migration Tool a distinct admin tool is its ability to change how Jira Server/Data Center configurations are migrated to the Cloud. You can decide how your projects, configurations, and users will be migrated to your Jira Cloud instance.

With Customize mapping, you can rename just about any configuration element and change the destination element it is mapped to. We're also giving you the option to download the current configuration mapping built by the analysis process with the Download mapping option. Keep in mind that the current mapping is always the latest mapping, and it will include any previous transformations you applied to the configuration.

What is mapping or configuration mapping ?is

Mapping or configuration mapping is an extensive map built by Cloud Migration Tool’s analysis processes. It holds information on how the configuration elements in the migration scope will be moved to Jira Cloud.

After reading this map, the Cloud Migration Tool decides if it needs to:

  • create new elements,

  • merge matching source and destination elements, and

  • map destination elements to source elements without the need to update them.

Download and customize the default configuration mapping

Once you add projects to a migration and reach the analysis phase, you'll have the Download mapping and Customize mapping buttons. You'll spot them at the top right of the Analyze changes page. For the exact locations of the Download mapping and Customize mapping buttons, watch the gif below.
