The JSU Development team has been working closely with Atlassian to develop an automated solution for workflow migrations from Server to Cloud instances of Jira. While it is not yet available, Atlassian is working on implementing specific APIs compatible with the Cloud Migration Assistants as part of an Early Access Program, that is expected to be available in Spring 2021. Here, we guide you through a manual migration process that can be used until Atlassian's workflow API is live. |

To migrate Jira Server to Jira Cloud, you will need to consider the following things, depending on the functionality you are using in relation to the JSU App:
Workflow Condition/Validator/Post-Function
Workflows are automatically migrated to Jira Cloud, but the Workflow Configuration will be broken. This is due to how Workflow Conditions/Validators/Post-Functions work on Jira Cloud.
All Conditions/Validators/Post-Functions will need to be recreated
- Post-functions
All the post-functions we offer on Jira Server, are also available on Jira Cloud. - Preconditions for post-functions
All the preconditions from Server are also available on Cloud. However, preconditions are no longer separate post-functions, they are now part of the post-function. See details here: Workflow Preconditions - Conditions/Validators
Due to technical limitations, JSU does not offer workflow conditions and validators in Jira Cloud. Only the User Is In Any Users Condition is offered by JSU. All other conditions and validators offered in JSU for Jira Server, are supported by Atlassian since 2016 and are integrated in Jira Cloud. However, the "Status Changed" and "JQL" conditions are still not supported. - Custom Fields
We provide 3 Custom Fields (Location, Location Select & Directions) on the JSU Server App (Custom Fields). Due to technical limitations, Custom Fields are not available on JSU for Jira Cloud. - Project Variables
We offer functionality to store variable per project which then can be used in Workflow Post-Functions (Project Variables). This is a feature we currently do not offer on Jira Cloud, but we have it in our backlog.
