Migrate Jira Server/Data Center projects to Jira Cloud

We designed and developed a powerful tool that allows you to transfer projects and issues from Jira Server or Data Center instances to Jira Cloud sites automatically. 

Let us introduce you to the Configuration Manager Cloud Migration Tool, which will allow you to plug your Jira servers into the Cloud in a clean and effortless manner. Paired with Configuration Manager for Jira Cloud, our free Cloud Migration Tool empowers you to move your teams' projects and issues with complete data integrity to the Cloud.

We stayed true to our nature with this app and created a product with an innovative look and feel as well as cutting-edge backend power.

If you want to migrate projects and issues from your Jira servers or data centers to Jira Cloud with confidence and minimal manual effort, our migration tool pair is what you’re looking for.

We will refer to the app as Cloud Migration Tool throughout our documentation.

How migrating to Jira Cloud works

Migrating to the cloud with the Cloud Migration Tool is a convenient and safe process. Start by installing the Cloud Migration Tool on the source Jira Server or Data Center instances and the Configuration Manager for Jira Cloud on your Jira Cloud site.

Then, after installing the apps, configure smooth connections between all of your instances and migrate project configurations. For a successful migration, you just need to connect to the cloud, select projects, analyze changes, take action on conflicts, and run the migration.

Use case

The Cloud Migration Tool’s primary use case is migrating projects and issues from Jira Server or Data Center instances to Jira Cloud sites. Review the full use case for details and best practices on migrating your instance to the cloud.
