Cloud to cloud migration with Xray tests

[Dylan Pernin]

Hello,
We have to migrate a Team managed project containing Xray tests to a new Team managed project on a different Jira cloud instance without losing the links between the Xray elements.
 We plan to do it like this:
- Export with GraphQL the links between tests and tests plans, tests sets, tests executions
- Recover the keys from the IDs
- Add the links between the elements to the new project with GraphQL

Is there another way to do this more simply? Has anyone already done this? A script already exist to perform this migration?

Thank you in advance for your reply,
Regards,Dylan

Hi @Dylan Pernin 

There is no out-of-the-box solution for this unless someone else has developed some script to do this.

It could be accomplished using GraphQL, but it is necessary to keep track of the Keys, IDs, and relationships between the issues to replicate the same links on the destination instance.

Any additional questions, please get in touch with Xray Support (http://xraysupport.getxray.app); we would gladly assist you.

Thank you.

Kind regards,

We are in the process of finalizing a tool to migrate Xray data from one Cloud instance to another (based on the Xray APIs).
Feel free to contact us if needed!

Hi @Dylan Pernin , did you manage to achieve this? I have a similar requirement that I am currently looking at options for. Regards, Steve

Hi @Stephen.Marsh, we are currently working on a nodeJS script using GraphQL to manage this. 
The Xray support created an issue in order to gather interest for a solution : https://jira.getxray.app/browse/XRAYCLOUD-4703

Hi @Dylan Pernin 

I am due to start work on this now... Just wondering whether you managed to migrate everything successfully in the end?
