connect jira data centre to bitbucket cloud

[Tom Lister]

Hi 

I am being asked to setup a bitbucket server. Our Jira software is on data centre ( but planning to migrate to cloud). I would prefer to install bitbucket on cloud from the start. Will the integration work between cloud Bitbucket and data centre Jira?

Hi @Tom Lister

Bitbucket and JIRA integration works with the JIRA data center as per our documentation here and when you migrate your JIRA server over to the cloud you can uninstall the current server integration and re-integrate with your Jira cloud instance.

As long as the issue keys remain the same from when it was firstly integrated with your JIRA data center then re-integrating it on the cloud will automatically re-link everything again.

I hope this helps!

Dear @Syahrul

For testing cases would it be also possible to connect one Bitbucket Cloud instance to Jira cloud AND Jira data center.

We need the Bitbucket connectivity tests before migrating the projects. 

Thanks,

Hey @T_CON GmbH _ Co_ KG 

No, I don't think it's possible. It has to be two ways connection, Bitbucket cloud <> Jira cloud or Bitbucket cloud <> Jira DC.
