Kiwi offers you the possibility to move complex workflows from a JIRA system to another just with the click of your mouse. 

In order to do a complete import, your first(and mandatory) step is to export a workflow.

This can be done from the Export page that is accessible from the main KIWI page, which can be found in the Administration view, Plugins-> KIWI.

Go to the Export Workflow page.

Here you will find a combo-box from which you can select the workflow you want to export.

Default Workflow

We choose not to allow the export of "The default JIRA workflow" due to the fact that this is a read only workflow.

As the description on the page informs, you are about to export a JIRA Workflow with all its dependencies (associated statuses, custom fields and screens).

SIL scripts

NOTE: if you are using our JJUPIN plugin and you have created SIL scripts (validators, conditions or post-functions) on the transitions of the exported workflow,
these SIL scripts will be exported too.

Press the Export button.

If all has working to plan you'll see a SUCCESS message on the screen. The message also shows you were to find your exported workflow file. The directory in which to look is the KIWI home folder (this can be found at "PATH_TO_JIRA_HOME/kepler/kiwi"). Here you will find a new file named after your exported workflow with the extension .kwi.

After this operation you have a brand new KIWI file that you can copy to your JIRA system where you'll do the import. Now you've just left Sunda.
