How to migrate data from one custom field type to another one

we need to change the type from single user list to multiple user.

Hi @surendaran 

There is no easy way to do that. Options that I see:

- you can write a script based on Jira REST API and copy values from one field to another one

- you can use automation for jira and create a rule that will be copying values based on JQL

- you can use some add-ons like JSU, JMWE and create a transition where you will use post function that will be copying values.
