# Jira importer
|
|
|
|
This node app converts a Jira xml export into a Focalboard archive. To use:
|
|
1. Open Jira advanced search, and search for all the items to export
|
|
2. Select `Export`, then `Export XML`
|
|
3. Save it locally, e.g. to `jira_export.xml`
|
|
4. Run `npm install` from within `focalboard/webapp`
|
|
5. Run `npm install` from within `focalboard/import/jira`
|
|
6. Run `npx ts-node importJira.ts -i <path-to-jira.xml> -o archive.focalboard` (also from within `focalboard/import/jira`)
|
|
7. In Focalboard, click `Settings`, then `Import archive` and select `archive.focalboard`
|
|
|
|
## Import scope and known limitations
|
|
|
|
Currently, the script imports each item as a card into a single board. Note that Jira XML export is limited to 1000 issues at a time.
|
|
|
|
Users are imported as Select properties, with the name of the user.
