We have two cloud instances of Jira and we would like to merge them.

Matt February 18, 2019

Please can anyone recommend any apps that help with this?

I have looked at Project Configurator for Jira and Configuration Manager for Jira. Unfortunately these only work on Server / Data Center.

The default way of importing and exporting does not migrate things like attachments.

Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks

Hi Matt,

we migrate/merge cloud servers quite often using Configuration Manager for JIRA following the described above by Alexey procedure - create server clones of the cloud servers, merge them and then upload the merged server to the cloud.

You can find more detailed information in the following two use cases:

Move Projects with Issues Data

Merge JIRA Servers

With Configuration Manager for JIRA, we can provide you with short term one month licenses only for the duration of the merge work.

Last but not least if you think you will be too much for you to handle we provide services which can merge the servers with no data loss.

If you have any questions don't hesitate to contact us at services@botronsoft.com.

Cheers,

Peter T

Hello,

You need to backup your cloud instances for server and restore the backups on two stage Jira Servers. Then merge two instance with the Project Configurator or the Configuration Manager plugins. And then restore the merged backup back to Cloud.

Both plugins can migrate attachments
