If you use JSU Server/Data Center and are planning a migration to Jira Cloud, you can use Atlassian’s Jira Cloud Migration Assistant (JCMA) to migrate most of your JSU workflow automations.
To learn more about migrating your JSU app and its workflow rules from Jira Server to Jira Cloud, see our Jira Cloud Migration Assistant page. Before proceeding with a migration, review our feature comparison tables below to understand the subtle differences between our Cloud and Server/Data Center apps.
If you are looking for documentation on a JSU Cloud to Server migration, please see Migrating from Jira Cloud to Jira Server.
Feature comparison summary:
- 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 into 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 variables per project which then can be used in Workflow Post-Functions (Project Variables). This feature is not currently supported on Jira Cloud; it's in our roadmap, and we will let you know as soon as it's available.
