Hi developer community,

We’ve recently announced the release of APIs that will allow you to start building a migration path from server / Data Center to cloud for your app data, or integrate your existing server / Data Center to cloud migration path, with the Cloud Migration Assistants.

We’ve just released the third set of APIs that will allow you to complete the final step in our framework - reporting progress back to the Cloud Migration Assistant. Check out the docs.

Additional APIs for:

  • Jira specific migration friction: Bulk APIs to simply data import with Custom Fields (Target release date Nov 25, 2020 ) Note: It is possible to migrate Custom Fields with existing APIs , however we intend to make the process more reliable by providing you with bulk APIs to do so.
  • Jira specific migration friction: API to replace usernames / userkeys to AAIDs in JQL. (Target release date: Dec 16, 2020 )
  • Jira specific migration blocker: Workflow Extensions (post functions, conditions, validators) (Target release date Dec 30, 2020 )
  • Jira specific migration friction: Bulk APIs to simply data import with Entity Properties (Target release date Jan 6, 2021 ) Note: It is possible to migrate Custom Fields with existing APIs , however we intend to make the process more reliable by providing you with bulk APIs to do so.

Watch the changelog for additional updates.

Thanks @akassab for the update.

For the additional APIs, what does “target release date” mean? Date of first availability to developers, or date of general availability in the migration assistant?

Basically, for apps that depend heavily on these additional APIs, when can we expect to be able to start working on the migration implementation?

Thanks,
David

@david2 - Target date refers to when the API will be publicly available to developers.
