Migrate Jira Software to Jira Work Management Edited

[Steve Gehlen]

We are using Jira Software (cloud), but have really set it up to work for non-software projects that are now better suited to the new Jira Work Management product.   What is the process of migrating our current Jira Software projects (team-managed) to Jira Work Management (team-managed), while maintaining all the current issues, board flow, etc?

Thanks.

Hello @Steve Gehlen 

I am not finding any documentation specific to migrating from Team Managed projects to Work Management projects. I think it would be similar to migrating to Company Managed projects, but I'm not really sure since we don't use Work Management projects.

https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/migrate-between-team-managed-and-company-managed-projects/

Pay particular attention to the very last section of the document.

The workflows and board will have to be recreated; they will not "migrate". Any custom fields you created will have to be recreated; those also will not migrate. Report information will be lost; sprints, velocity charts, etc.

Thank you for your reply.

In our case, we are looking to migrate from Jira Software using team-managed projects to Jira Work Management team-managed projects.  Since both are team-managed I'm hoping we won't lose anything in the process.

I edited my original post to make it more clear that it is team-managed to team-managed.

Where are you seeing that the Work Management product includes Team Managed projects?

All the information I'm reading in the Work Management documentation is content relevant to Company Managed projects. I'm not finding anything yet that says you can create a Team Managed project in the Work Management product.
