Overview
Configuration Manager for Jira (CMJ) is a powerful tool that automates the transfer of Jira configurations and data between different Jira Server and Data Center instances.
Since its first release, Configuration Manager for Jira has provided built-in integrations for the most widely used apps, including JSU Automation Suite for Jira Workflows for Server and Data Center. Users of JSU can migrate most of their workflow configurations with minimal effort.
As of release 2.27.0, JSU provides full integration for CMJ. Thanks to this integration, the migration of all JSU configurations including global settings, project variables, custom fields, conditions, validators, and post-functions is officially supported.
JSU supports native integration for Configuration Manager for Jira version 6.6.6 and higher
It is recommended that you verify and test the app configuration data migration in a staging environment before deploying it in production.

Limitations
