Moving data from Jira On-Demand to Local Server version

[Deleted user]

I have seen the information about using the back-up manager to move data from the cloud to a local server, but it makes no mention of the project data; screens, workflows, permissions, etc.

Are these also included in the backup?

Everything is in the export, in terms of your data.   You can use it to create a virtually identical copy of what you have on Cloud. 

Except it plays a couple of tricks with the system admin user so that you can get access to your system at a system level, and, of course, Connect add-on stuff won't work on Server.  Add ons will need installing too, if you had any, but the data for them is included in the export.

Thanks Nic - I think I should have just sent you an email asking the question

It's better to do this stuff in public - people search "answers" for information like this  

If you look at my profile, you'll see I've asked a small handful of questions.  That number would be massive if I hadn't been able to search here for help before asking!

Yes, totally agree with you, I do the same. Was just making an indirect reference to your standing on the Leaderboard... you are the MAN!

Thanks again - I'll be able to sleep at night now.
