Cloud-to-Cloud Migration using Imported backup data

David Fang
March 29, 2023

Hello,

I am trying to do a Cloud-to-Cloud Migration using Imported backup data: https://support.atlassian.com/jira-cloud-administration/docs/import-issues/

Reason I am using this method is because using the Cloud-to-Cloud Migration tool requires me to have "organizational admin" for the second website. And this method seems more straightforward.

I was a bit confused when I was reading that "Import overwrites existing data

This import process overwrites existing data and configuration (including cross-application settings) in your Jira cloud site."

My question is simply if I backup the first website, and export the zip file. And have my coworker who is an admin on the second website import the file. Will it overwrite everything on the second website? I hope it is not the case, because the second website contains thousands of already existing stories, tasks etc, and we only want to add in data from the first website.

Thank you for your help

I tried that, but have not been able to get anything to show up in that panel.  Which location will enable that?
