Migration from TFS to JIRA

Question

Hi ,

I am looking for solutions to migrate the boards,work items etc from TFS to JIRA Cloud.

Kindly suggest me the best possible approach to do so.

I have heard about TFS4JIRA ,but I am confused whether it is ideal for migration or only sync between JIRA and TFS.

Any help will be appreciated .

Thanks

Hi,

I see that you are looking to migrate data from TFS into Jira Cloud.  We have a guide on how to do this in Jira Server over in Importing data from TFS or Visual Studio.  These steps are effectively the same as importing into Jira Cloud, provided that you follow the instructions in the Importing data from CSV page for Cloud.

That page itself even notes other alternative and easier ways to migrate this data:

If you are looking for an easier solution

The import through CSV has certain limitations. If the results aren't satisfactory, there are complete third party solutions available which might help you. Please check out the following solutions from Atlassian Marketplace:

* TFS4Jira from Spartez
* UseTFS from Pigsty
* Jira Connector for ConnectALL from Go2Group

You can also contact your local Atlassian Expert for help.

I hope this helps.
