🪄 Workflow Import
On the Import page you can upload a single or multiple workflows to your Jira Cloud instance. Choose a workflow from your file explorer by clicking the "Select File" button or simply drag a file to the import page. The file has to be a JSON file exported using Workflow Wizard. A preview of the workflow in json format will appear in the text field where it can be edited.
How To​
Upload Workflows​
To upload, simply click on Upload file and select the JSON file containing the workflows you want to import.
Validation​
Once the file is uploaded, you can click on "Next" and your workflows will be automatically validated. Workflow Wizard will check if your workflow is compatible with the already existing workflows and statuses.
Successful Validation​
Validation Errors​
If the workflows being imported cause any conflicts, a warning will appear, and the JSON editor will open automatically. You can resolve the issues directly in the editor (e.g., if a workflow name already exists) by editing the JSON. Every change you make will trigger a re-validation. The warning will tell you precisely what causes the conflict and how to solve it. After the corrections are made and validation is successful, you can import your workflow as described above.
It is recommended that you only modify the conflicts highlighted in the warnings after validation and avoid making any other changes to the JSON structure.
Import​
If there are no issues and the validation is successful, you can simply click on Import Workflow to allow Workflow Wizard to start creating the workflows in Jira.
