Migrating custom fields from Next Gen to Classic

Question

Hello!

I will be migrating from Next Gen project to Classic and I have few custom fields made for my issues. I tried to make a trial migration and it seems like these custom fields do not migrate to Classic project (I made the same fields in Classic to match the New Gen ones).

Can export the issues from Next Gen and then just bulk update them in Classic? Or maybe there is another way to migrate custom fields?

Thank you in advance!

You could export your issues from the Team Managed project and import them to the Company Managed project, mapping the exported custom field data to the custom fields you created in the Company Managed project, but you would not get the issue history that way.

There is not a native way to migrate issues between a Team Managed and Company Managed project that automatically copies data between custom fields and also brings all issue history, comments, and attachments along.
