Move project from one jira cloud instance to another jira cloud instance

[Suresh Choudhari]

I want to move one project from one jira cloud instance to another jira cloud instance..

I was trying using server instance but for a server instance, I need to configure the server properties which is Custom Field Type, Workflows and workflow schemes, Issue Types, status, etc.  but the limitation is I don't have admin access to jira cloud instance from which I need to export the project.

Is there any way that I can do this using the backup XML file. 
Or I can find a way to prepare my server instance same as cloud and do importing things? 

Is there any tool which I can use?

Hi @Suresh Choudhari 

If you want to move only one i will recommend you to use import data from CSV .

Otherwise you will need to create a backup of your instance, import it on a temporary jira, clean this new jira to keep only your one project and create a new backup and import it to your target jira, but you will need admin access.

Hi @Mohamed Benziane 

Thanks for reply

Can you tell me how I can export the data related to the same project in the CSV file?

can you suggest any tool which will do this job more accurately?

You can try to follow this KB:

I'm not aware if a tool exist to import from a jira cloud instance to a jira cloud instance.I tried this one but is working for server only.

Hope this helps.

That article does not touch on how to export data from Jira as CSV.
