Question

Is there a limit to how many issues can be synced when migrating to Jira Cloud using Backbone?

Answer

There’s no limit to the number of issues that can be synced, although it might take longer for larger instances. Giving an exact estimate of the time is difficult since it depends on multiple factors. These include:

• The resources on your DC instance

• The number of projects you want to sync

• The number of issues per project

• The number of active issue updates you have

In general, the initial sync/creation of the issues needs to be split up, which might require some work. We therefore recommend our 30-day free trail to test Backbone and see how it fits your use case.
