The problem - when exporting/importing insight into another Jira it gets new ids and keys.

This makes the issues lose the connection to the insight schema when migrating issues from one Jira to another.

1. Tag objects with the issue key, to be able to recreate the link after.

2. Import the insight schema

3. Import the issues

4. Re-link the issues to insight objects

Tag objects with the issue key, to be able to recreate the link after.

Open

On the image above we see the linked issues connected to the user database. To preserve these we need to tag the object with a identifier that will be the same. 

Create an attribute called Migration that will be used to identify the objekt late on.

Open

Add an automation to tag the object with its own key

Results in

Migration has now the original objekt key.

Do step 2 and 3 using export / import of project and object schema

Update the custom fields to map to new objectType Ids.

Step 4. Re-link the issues to insight objects

1. Go to iHub
