Export and Import Project

Barış Özer

Hello,

I created test.atlassian.net environment to learn Jira.

I am in the role of admin in my company.

How can I transfer all the projects or service desk project in Jira we use to the test environment?

I actually want to upload the copy to the test environment?

Hi @Barış Özer

This is one of the weakness of JSM. There's no out-of-the-box way of doing so.

You have two options.

1-You recreate everything manually in your "prod" environment.

2-You can use a third-party add-on. I recommend Configuration Manager for Jira from Appfire. I've used it in the past and it's working well.

Recently, a big company I've work with decided to stop developing in a separate environment. What they did is to create a "DEV" project and create everything in this project. When it's tested, they just add contexts to their fields, add the workflow to the other projects and recreate the forms. I suggest you try it, it's way easier than transfering everything.

Hope this helps.

Have a nice day

Just to add a little to that correct answer:

It's not just JSM - the whole of Jira has no system-to-system project copying/updating. (Apart from a complete backup and restore). You can import the issues from a project into an existing project, from a full backup too, but neither of those options are vaguely close to what you need.
There are apps in the marketplace that can export and import project data - configuration or issues (or both)
