Veqsio
Migrate from Jira to Veqsio
Import projects with their original issue keys, keep syncing while people still work in Jira, then switch the team over on a day you choose.
Three ways to import
| Method | Use it when |
|---|---|
| Live import over REST | You have Jira Cloud (e-mail and API token) or Server / Data Center (personal access token or username and password). One click, re-runnable, with Sync changes from Jira until cut-over. |
| Jira XML backup | You have a Data Center backup file (up to 2 GB). It is analysed first, with a dry run, conflict resolution, and pause and resume. |
| CSV | You exported issues from Jira. Map the columns and run a validation pass before anything is written. |
What comes across
Projects, issues with their original keys, comments, worklogs, links, sub-tasks, labels, components, versions, change history, attachments, custom fields, workflows, boards with columns and sprints. Re-running updates what was imported instead of duplicating it.
What does not come across yet
- Permission schemes and notification schemes — set them up in the admin screens.
- Anything not listed above, such as data that belongs to Marketplace apps.
Anything that cannot be imported is listed in the import report.
A safe plan
- Try it on a copy. Install a test Veqsio and import one project.
- Prepare people. Create users (or connect SSO) first; people are matched by e-mail.
- Import everything shortly before the switch, then sync again to catch up.
- Switch the team and make Jira read-only.
- Run Configuration health and review permission schemes.
The step-by-step guide is in the documentation. You can also import from Linear, Asana and ClickUp, or from a JSON file.
Frequently asked questions
Will my issue keys stay the same?
Yes. The live import keeps the original project and issue keys (for example ABC-123).
Can I keep using Jira while I test?
Yes. The import reads from Jira and does not change it. Re-run it, or use Sync changes from Jira, until you are ready to switch.
Which Jira versions are supported?
Jira Cloud, and Server or Data Center over REST, plus Data Center XML backups and CSV exports.
What about users?
People are matched to existing Veqsio users by e-mail. Unmatched people can be created as placeholder accounts that sign in later through SSO or a password reset.
Are attachments and history imported?
Yes. Attachments, comments, worklogs and change history are part of the live import.
