Converting a trello board to Jira Agile board

[Deleted user]

We've got many teams each with their own trello boards, at least a few dozen in total. Each of these boards has a unique workflow depending on the board. For example, our blog writers have a board with the columns 'ideas', 'researching', 'in progress', 'draft complete', 'ready for publication', 'published'. Its easy for them to create a new column in their workflow, just a couple of clicks.

However from what I can gather in JIRA Agile, I need to create new (global) issue statuses to represent each of these columns and then create a workflow using the new status's and then tie that workflow to the relevant issue type. This would mean creating hundreds of new issue status's and a huge amount of work to replicate the workflow of each board. In addition a team member cannot easily just add a new column 'issue status' from the board. What am I missing?

Have a look at here and make the necessary modification for your version

Hi Parthis,

I am getting following error

Access to the specified resource (You are not allowed to get a result set of more than 3000 results. Current search returns 4702 results) has been forbidden.

You need to grant permissions as well like so

jira.search.views.max.unlimited.group = jira-administrators

this should go in a file called jira-config.properties under jira.home

if you dont see a file there create one and add this property

I am updating the jira-config.properties with

jira.search.views.default.max = 6000

jira.search.views.max.limit = 6000

[DeepakBhatia]

Thanks, you mean if I set

jira.search.views.max.unlimited.group = jira-administrators

Then only JIRA Administrator will be able to view maximum

[DeepakBhatia]

My new jira-config file has following values

jira.search.views.default.max = 6000
jira.search.views.max.limit = 6000
jira.search.views.max.unlimited.group = jira-users

As we have users who mostly access JIRA from LAN....Please confirm, Thanks....

looks good .. dont forget to restart .. a word of caution .. this is not a default for a reason and might affect your performance.. use it with care

To echo Parthis' warning - downloads of more than a couple of thousand issues WILL kill your performance if you do them a lot. If it's irregular and only one or two people do it, you'll be fine, but if 30 people all run similar large downloads at 2pm on a Thursday because it's a meeting time, you will find the server grinds to a halt.

It's always worth questioning people doing large downloads - it usually means they need training, help or that they've got a broken business requirement. In some rare cases, they actually need some code to help them.
