Hi everyone I’m currently managing two separate Jira Cloud instances and looking for a Marketplace app or method that allows me to replicate complete workflows from one instance to another. I'm not only interested in copying the basic transitions, but also in preserving all configuration details, such as: * Conditions * Validators * Post Functions * Transition names and descriptions * Status mappings (if applicable) Has anyone found an app that can handle this reliably? I’ve seen a few options that help with project migration, but workflow-level granularity, including the automation elements mentioned above, seems to be less supported. Any recommendations or insights would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Looking for Marketplace App to Clone Workflows Between Two Cloud Instances

Hi everyone

I’m currently managing two separate Jira Cloud instances and looking for a Marketplace app or method that allows me to replicate complete workflows from one instance to another.

I'm not only interested in copying the basic transitions, but also in preserving all configuration details, such as:

Conditions
Validators
Post Functions
Transition names and descriptions
Status mappings (if applicable)

Has anyone found an app that can handle this reliably?

I’ve seen a few options that help with project migration, but workflow-level granularity, including the automation elements mentioned above, seems to be less supported.

Any recommendations or insights would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Hi @Eduardo

If you're looking to replicate complete workflows from one Jira Cloud instance to another—including all transitions, post functions, conditions, validators, and statuses—then our app Deep Clone for Jira could help you.

With its Instance Clone feature, you can clone projects across instances. This will also clone your workflow scheme, including all transitions as you have configured them in the original.

Have you already tried the built-in XML export function for workflows?

is being deprecated — see JRACLOUD-69079). Remapping statuses/fields/screens is the hard part.

For **Cloud ↔ Cloud** company-managed workflows, I built **Easy Workflows for Jira** to cover that gap without a full config-manager stack: export/import as portable JSON, a **read-only validate** step that shows create/update/reuse (and blockers) before anything changes, side-by-side compare, plus automatic backups and one-click restore. It’s Forge-hosted (data stays in your site).

Try free (30-day trial; **free forever for ≤10 users**, then about USD 2/user/mo):

If you need whole projects/issues, prefer Atlassian’s Copy product data (or a config manager). Happy to hear what’s missing for your sites — info@berkly.nl.

Hi — you’re right that Cloud still doesn’t give a clean “export file → import on another site” path like Data Center XML. Company-managed workflows can be exported, but native import is Marketplace-only or API work. Remapping statuses and third-party rules is the hard part.

For Cloud company-managed workflows I built Easy Workflows for Jira: export/import as JSON, a read-only validate step before anything changes, side-by-side compare, plus snapshots and one-click restore. Data stays in the site (Forge).

Try free (30 days; free forever for ≤10 users, then about USD 2/user/mo):
https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/503324296/try?hosting=cloud

It does not move issues, team-managed workflows, or DC XML. For whole projects, use Atlassian Copy product data. Questions: info@berkly.nl
