Overview

Dataplane Reports is part of Appfire group of industry-leading business intelligence and reporting apps for Atlassian products, which include:

Dataplane Reports runs on Jira Data Center and Server and is not available on Jira Cloud.

While we continue focusing Dataplane Reports on enterprise-scale reporting for Jira Data Center and Server, we’ve partnered with Appfire Dashboard Hub for the Jira team to deliver a first-class Jira Cloud reporting solution for Dataplane Reports customers and a path to migrate your Dataplane Reports data to Dashboard Hub for Jira Cloud.

About Dashboard Hub for Jira Cloud

As with Dataplane Reports, Appfire Dashboard Hub for Jira Cloud unlocks powerful business insights with reporting built for teams.

With Dashboard Hub for Jira Cloud, create and share dashboards effortlessly for ITSM, Agile, and DevOps teams with intuitive and custom metrics. Combine data from over 100 gadgets and a dozen integrations, and enable a single reference point where your teams can align and collaborate.

About Jira Cloud Migration Assistant (JCMA)

We’ve integrated Dataplane Reports with Atlassian’s Jira Cloud Migration Assistant (JCMA) app to provide an automated migration path for moving your Dataplane Reports app data to Dashboard Hub for Jira Cloud.

Atlassian JCMA app is free, pre-installed in every Jira Data Center and Server instance, and typically the main tool that Atlassian customers use to migrate their Jira data. So the Dataplane Reports-JCMA integration likely already fits seamlessly into your existing plans for migrating to Jira Cloud.

Migrating Dataplane Reports

Two different ways to migrate the Dataplane Reports of your organization to Dashboard Hub for Jira Cloud apply:
*Automated migration using Atlassian’s Jira Cloud Migration Assistant (JCMA)
OR
*Manually building reports in Dashboard Hub for Jira Cloud.

Automated migration with JCMA should accomplish much of what you need, but as you become familiar with Dashboard Hub for Jira Cloud, you may find it more expedite to build some reports directly in the Cloud or tweak the results of an automated JCMA migration to tailor the results to your liking.

Automated JCMA Migration

Appfire is investing considerable resources in integrating Dataplane Reports with JCMA and Dashboard Hub for Jira Cloud to provide a path for moving your Dataplane reports to Cloud.

Support for migrating various types of Dataplane reports and features will be delivered in phases via coordinated releases of Dataplane Reports and Dashboard Hub for Jira Cloud.

Contact Appfire Support to share with us your Cloud migration timeline, or any specific Dataplane Reports migration needs.
