Migrate your Jira projects and issues into Superthread using our Jira API integration. We’ll preserve your data structure, including issues, workflows, assignees, and more.

Prerequisites

Before starting the import process, ensure you have:

  1. A Jira API token with sufficient permissions
  2. Your Jira email address
  3. Your Jira cloud hostname (e.g., yourcompany.atlassian.net)
    • This is the domain you see when logging into Jira
    • Do not include https:// or anything after .net

Getting Started

To start a Jira import:

  1. Go to Settings > Workspace > Importers
  2. Select Jira from the available import options
  3. Enter your Jira credentials and hostname
  4. Review and confirm the import options before proceeding

We’ll map your Jira data to Superthread fields as follows:
