The manual migration from DC to Cloud is a two-step process.

### Step 1

Migrate Jira data such as projects, dashboards, issues, components, releases, etc... from Server/DC to Cloud. Atlassian recommends using JCMA ([https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1222010/jira-cloud-migration-assistant](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1222010/jira-cloud-migration-assistant)) for this.

### Step 2

Once the Jira data is in the Cloud, the app data can be migrated. We recommend using export-import functionality to do this.

Three features in the Subcomponents Cloud app can be migrated from the Data Center version of the Subcomponents app:

1. Subcomponents
2. Component versions
3. Packages

To migrate Subcomponents app data from Server/DC to Cloud, repeat these steps for Subcomponents, Component versions, and Packages features:

1. Open a specific feature in Jira DC and click “Export”.
  
2. Open the same feature in Jira Cloud. Navigate to “Import” and paste the content from an exported file:
  
3. After the import, you will have the same feature state as in Jira Server/DC:
  

**Note: **  
We recommend updating the Subcomponent DC app to the latest version before migration.
