Migration

Migrating to Cloud? Dataplane is Data Center only. Dashboard Hub is our recommended Cloud replacement. It matches Dataplane's core reporting experience (interactive charts, JQL-based reports, scheduled sharing), plus built-in integrations and secure external sharing not available in Dataplane.

Overview

Dataplane Reports is part of Appfire’s industry-leading group of business intelligence and reporting apps, which include:

Dataplane Reports runs on Jira Data Center and is not available on Jira Cloud.

While we continue focusing Dataplane Reports on enterprise-scale reporting for Jira Data Center, we’ve partnered with the Appfire Dashboard Hub team to deliver a first-class Jira Cloud reporting solution for Dataplane Reports customers and a path to migrate your Dataplane Reports data to Dashboard Hub Pro for Jira Cloud.

About Dashboard Hub Pro for Jira Cloud

As with Dataplane Reports, Dashboard Hub Pro unlocks powerful business insights with reporting built for teams.

With Dashboard Hub Pro, create and share dashboards effortlessly for ITSM, Agile, and DevOps teams with intuitive and custom metrics. Combine data from over 100 gadgets and a dozen integrations, and enable a single reference point where your teams can align and collaborate.

About Jira Cloud Migration Assistant (JCMA)

We’ve integrated Dataplane Reports with Atlassian’s Jira Cloud Migration Assistant (JCMA) app to provide an automated migration path for moving your Dataplane Reports app data to Dashboard Hub Pro for Jira Cloud.

Atlassian JCMA app is free, pre-installed in every Jira Data Center instance, and typically the main tool that Atlassian customers use to migrate their Jira data. So the Dataplane Reports-JCMA integration likely already fits seamlessly into your existing plans for migrating to Jira Cloud.

For more details on Jira Cloud Migration Assistant (JCMA), refer to the following resources:

Migrating Dataplane Reports

There are two ways to migrate your Dataplane app data to Dashboard Hub Pro for Jira Cloud:

Automated migration using Atlassian’s Jira Cloud Migration Assistant (JCMA), or
Manually building reports in Dashboard Hub Pro

Automated migration with JCMA should accomplish much of what you need, but as you become familiar with Dashboard Hub Pro, it may be efficient to build some reports directly in Dashboard Hub Pro or tweak the results of an automated JCMA migration to tailor the results to your liking.

After the migration, the resulting Dashboard Hub gadgets will be displayed with view mode Viewer. (See Datasource Viewing Modes for further information). This is the same behaviour as on Dataplane Reports.

Automated JCMA Migration

Appfire is investing considerable resources in integrating Dataplane Reports with JCMA and Dashboard Hub Pro to provide a path for moving your Dataplane reports to Cloud.

Support for migrating various types of Dataplane reports and features will be delivered in phases via coordinated releases of Dataplane Reports and Dashboard Hub Pro.
