Migrating Easy Agile Programs
Easy Agile Programs is available on Jira Cloud and Jira Data Center. The app integrates with JCMA for automatic data migration to Jira Cloud. There is limited support for other migration pathways.
Migration pathways
Migrating to Cloud with JCMA
If you're migrating from an on-premise (Server or Data Center) Jira site to Cloud, Atlassian recommends using JCMA. The Jira Cloud Migration Assistant (JCMA) app enables automated data migration from Jira Server or Data Center to Jira Cloud.
Easy Agile Programs integrates with JCMA to automatically migrate app data alongside your Jira data.
See Migrating Easy Agile Programs with JCMA for full details.
This is the only migration pathway that is supported at this time.
Upgrading from Jira Server to Jira Data Center
If you’re upgrading your existing Jira Server site to Jira Data Center, you won’t need to migrate data.
In this situation, you only need to replace the app license with a new Data Center app license.
The Data Center version of the app works identically to the Server version, and also includes support for multi-node Data Center sites.
The Data Center version of the app can be used on a Jira Server site. Note that newer versions of Easy Agile Programs are not compatible with older versions of Jira: check version compatibility here.
Unsupported migration paths
The app does not integrate with other migration tools such as:
Atlassian’s Site import [discontinued]
Atlassian’s Copy product data
Third-party apps, such as those provided by other Atlassian Marketplace Partners
For full information about limits with other migration pathways, see Unsupported migration pathways for Easy Agile Programs.
Licensing for migrations
It isn’t possible to use an app license for one hosting type on a different hosting type. This means you can’t use your Data Center license for the app on Cloud.
However, Easy Agile apps are included in Atlassian discount programs:
Dual licensing: eligible customers can purchase an annual Cloud license to receive a free one-year extension to the equivalent license on Data Center
Cloud migration trial: eligible customers can receive a free trial of the Cloud app for the remaining length of the equivalent paid license on Data Center
If you have concerns about being charged for the app on both platforms at once during your migration, please reach out to our team here!
As all Easy Agile licensing is handled via the Atlassian Marketplace, Easy Agile is not able to manually manage licenses. However, we can partner with Atlassian to work with your situation.
License for migrations from Jira Server
It’s no longer possible to purchase or renew Server app licenses. We recommend upgrading to a Data Center license to enable your migration.
An active Data Center license can be used to install the latest app version before your migration. Versions prior to v4.4.0 do not integrate with JCMA.
Note that newer versions of Easy Agile Programs are not compatible with older versions of Jira: check version compatibility here.
Feature parity between Cloud and DC / Server
Cloud and Data Center / Server versions of the app are as similar as possible.
For full information on feature parity/differences, see Easy Agile Programs Cloud / Data Center differences.
