Migrate project from one instance to anotherusing Azure DevOps

[Alexis Jolo Barbaso]

Hi!

We are currently looking for a way to deploy our Jira Projects using Azure DevOps is this possible?

Thanks!

Hi @Alexis Jolo Barbaso I'm the Community manger at Exalate.

For something like this, the best way is usually through the Jira REST API or apps like Configuration Manager for Jira or Project Configurator, since they’re built for project provisioning and deployment.

If what you’re really looking for is to sync Jira issues with Azure DevOps work items as part of your process, then a connector like Exalate could make sense, since it lets you keep both systems in sync bidirectionally. But when it comes to actually “deploying Jira projects,” you’ll probably want to stick with the API/configuration management route.

Hope this helps!

Hi @Alexis Jolo Barbaso 

Welcome to the community.

Atlassian has provided a solution for this case, copy-product-data 

I don't see your point in trying to invent the wheel again.

To return to your case, you would need to connect to multiple API end points to get al the data and then use API calls to place all information in another instance, but this will cal for loads of work.

Hi Marc,

We have an internal process of reviewing projects that we deploy and we are currently using Azure for this and I'm not trying to "Invent the wheel again" I'm just asking if this is possible. As we don't want to use another platform to do our approvals, review and deployment. We want to do the review and approval in DevOps so I'm asking if there is a way to integrate the deployment to Azure. 

Regards,

Jolo

Hi @Alexis Jolo Barbaso 

I mentioned this as well.

You can look at Jira API endpoint, api-rest-api-3-project-template-post
