We want to make it simple to migrate from other project, work and issue management tools to OpenProject. And we will focus on Jira (Atlassian), first.

We know that that migrating from Jira is not a small challenge. Jira and its ecosystem is big. However, the user base of Jira is also big. And many have a strong interest to migrate to OpenProject as it is Open Source, it offers real data sovereignty and it is frees from vendor lock.

We would like to encourage the community to support us with this work. The more the better:

• Checkout the development roadmap of the Jira Migrator tool.

• Get in contact with us. Please write an email with the subject 'Joining community' to support@openproject.com, if you would like to join our community. We will then invite to this instance you as soon as possible.

• Test our early versions and give us feedback.

• Donate data that we can use for testing our migrations. Share your files privately here and let us know by creating a FEEDBACK work package.

• Contribute code. Fork the repository on GitHub and get started.

Out of scope of this project

The Migrator currently focusses on migrating projects and workspaces and not yet on configurations. 

Also, the Migrator can only import those objects that have a representation in OpenProject. Checkout the general development roadmap for more information.
