Migrate from Jira internal directory to Crowd

Eddy Fras January 22, 2019

Hi,

I have a Jira internal directory with almost 10000 users and 500 groups inside shared with Confluence and Service Desk servers.

I'd like to migrate to Crowd server, connect to my enterprise LDAP to delegate authentication (to stop managing specific passwords to acces Jira and use the LDAP one) for all users and keep existing users/groups associations.

What's the best way to proceed ?

Is there any guide for this kind of migration ?

Thanks for your help,

Eddy

Eddy,

 

There is some migration documentation but thats mostly when you want to move your userbase to crowd, without the LDAP link.

If the usernames in jira matches the usernames in LDAP than you can try to import the memberships and then switch over to LDAP.

If not i think your in for some manual work.

You can always try to export everything to CSV both jira and AD, map them on email address, hoping that matches, and rebuild the membership userbase and import that in crowd.

Some info about imports:

Hi Laurens,

Sorry I missed your answer.

I finally managed to do what I wanted to do using this guide : https://confluence.atlassian.com/crowdkb/how-do-i-migrate-crowd-internal-directory-users-to-a-delegated-ldap-directory-391086175.html
