Import a single project from a backup that has multiple projects btw two cloud instances

Julie Ross

Hi!

I have a Jira cloud instance with mutliple client projects hosted on it. A client who has created their own Jira cloud instance would like their project imported in but I am having trouble figuring out how to import a single project from the backup file I exported from my Jira instance.

 

I have read documentation that says I can delete the other projects that I don't want to import from the backup but I want to do this before importing the backup in due to privacy concerns for existing client data.

Hello Julie,

Unfortunately, at the moment, it's not possible to export a single project to import to another instance.

Atlassian has a feature request suggesting the implementation of such ability:

• JRACLOUD-34307 

That being said, the best option for this case is to export the CSV of all tickets of the desired project and import it in the new instance.

You can check the documentation below for more details:

•  Importing data from CSV

Hope this helps!

Cheers,

Carlos
